That may be true, but Google started when I didn’t have similar preconceptions based on name yet. The trend of calling something Trackr, Suprnova etc. didn’t exist.

Now any service with a name like that seems shit compared to more readable/writeable names: Stackoverflow, Quora, datadog.

Case in point is srht.co, which rebranded to Sourcehut for similar reasons.
