I picked "floaters" because that is one of many en_GB slang terms for a piece of excrement floating in a toilet bowl. cf turd etc.

I will now rename my shortcut to "dump floaters". Dump is en_GB for the act of delivering floaters and also a slang term for "get rid of". So I unleash a bit of JS with a name that simultaneously means to create or remove a lump of shit, depending on how you decipher it.

That seems quite appropriate.

Ha! I appreciate the update. I'll rename mine accordingly.
