I 100% agree. Cutesy names should end once the package name has been chosen. Package authors and contributors that overdo the thematic names should stick to writing fiction, not code.

"keg" and "bottle" are cutesy? well, to see the exact opposite of "cutesy", please fork homebrew and give all of those things GUIDs for names, including all the packages a user could install; you'll soon see why the names chosen are quite acceptable, indeed.

  This is the worst straw-man I've seen this year. Realistically, non-cute homebrew names would look like bin, libexec, repo, that is to say descriptive names that are already in common use, not GUIDs.
