I'm just pointing out in the more general case that if someone comes up
with a badly named git-xyz it doesn't scale to try to point this out to
them before git-xyz is widely deployed.
So we must either let it go (solution #1), or come up with some
API-level solution that makes it a non-issue (my #3).
How about solution #4: live and let live when it comes down to it, but
act like actual people and talk to avoid negative consequences?
Some social problems don't have technical solutions.
Talking scales, in strange ways. For example, people are able to look
at the list archive, people are able to spread thoughts they have
found interesting, and so on.
