Google chose a name that works for them, the reverse naming is for their convenience and use, not yours. This is quite a common practice to use more obscure naming for internal infrastructure (eg, footprint.net is Level3 CDN).
When you see a connection on tcp/443 to ec2-50-29-151-90.compute-1.amazonaws.com, how do you know if that is a botnet connection or not?
