Yeah, don't want to come of as bullish. Just that I agree with the general sentiment on this comments, that this terminology probably overcomplicates things for no reason.

Better to slightly misuse/expand an existing know term like projects or notebooks to cover more than it does now, than to invent a new term that covers all the meanings that apply, but whose meaning is initially unfamiliar to people.

bullish adjective 1. aggressively confident and self-assertive.

E.g. "my way is da best, you should do WHAT I SAY"

That's one of the definitions for the bullish lemma from the Oxford Dictionary.

Which is also a valid use case.

Though the one I listed is the first lemma.
