I agree with you and to add. I think of FTP used in describing s3 is kinda like Coke being used to describe all cola based soft drinks. FTP here is a generic descriptor for transferring files, The protocols part is unimportant as is the difference between Coke and Pepsi when you said I’d like a coke.

All of the descriptors used for the Aws stack had a similar ring to them with an intended audience of someone a little older and with a little, or more, legacy knowledge about tech. Oddly I could see this useful for two use cases.

1- explaining something to my mom, now over 60 and no longer in the know with regard to tech. Might remember what ftp is or collocation is 2- explaining to an older very siloed technical person, I’m thinking enterprise/gov networking in a place where they don’t get exposure to newer cloud stack stuff.
