These are literally two things with the name Dragonfly. I don’t particularly care about whether the shared name is confusing here but it is disingenuous to pretend that identical names are merely similar.

Dragonfly and Firefly are not the same word.

One of us is clearly missing something here. The two things I’m talking about are Dragonfly BSD and Alibaba’s Dragonfly file distribution system. Neither of these are named Firefly.
