funnily enough, the relation comes from a french jurist's last name from their repo: https://github.com/CatalaLang/catala https://github.com/CatalaLang/catala > The language is named after Pierre Catala, a professor of law who pionneered the French legaltech by creating a computer database of law cases, Juris-Data.
