You also won't find many products being labeled with things like
"magic", except maybe for some of Apple's input devices, and
drugs called magic mushrooms.
Censoring language is a bad idea even for the richest
corporation, partially because there's practically no way to do
it without looking like a hypocrite or also doing massive
collateral damage. Like in this case, where Apple argues calling
an app "Amphetamine" is bad but calling one "Drug Mafia" or
"Drink extreme" is supposedly okay.
