A bit odd that they don't call it ES2015.

We were calling it ES6 since before it was called ES2015.

Who is "we"?

The WebKit team.
It will look bad they are two years behind.
How so?
Go to:

In STP or WebKit nightly
I think OP meant 2015 is two years ago, claiming it makes it look behind.
Truth is, ES6 is what we've called it, ES2015 is to confusing cool new name!

The WebKit team.
You like that question! Third time in this thread already
It seems reasonable for people speaking on behalf of a project to identify themselves as speaking on its behalf. The question has turned up three different people not divulging that information so far, so I think it's done the job.
We're not speaking on behalf of WebKit, merely as members of the team explaining the team's approach. Neither are we trying to hide as "not divulging" implies.
Our plot to express opinions about ES6 vs ES2105 as names without explicitly disclosing our affiliation in every post has been unmasked!
In before: who is "our"?
We like using the element of surprise:
