Why should they, and it seems very silly to flag a post for their preference of name.
Are users on Twitter birds? Or is Mastodon filled with elephants? Name is merely a symbol in today's world Google is synonymous to search but Google is not just search anymore.
I'm honestly curious about your gripe with it.
- behnamoh 3y agoSome people confuse research with production. Imagine if Einstein named his theory the Theory of Chimps, just to get attention.

- sebzim4500 3y agoThere's loads of stuff in physics with silly sounding names. quarks, anyons, etc.

- anaganisk 3y agoWhat's the point of research if it can't gain attention, how many people really understood or even know about some space magic, before interstellar kind of managed to ELI5. Research is meant for everyone, and in today's world you bring attention to it with catchy names. I wonder if Google was named PageRank Algorithm runner, how many would've even used it.
