I'm starting to think that everyone would be less outraged if they rebranded python3 to <insert_different_snake_here>

Look at how well that's worked out for Perl and Raku.

The Raku name was adopted not even 2 years ago, and it's not really the most popular programming language niche anyways.

I don't like overly tech-specific job titles, but "lead mighty boosh developer" sounds wonderful.

Every person saying "pythonic" instead of idiomatic would need to switch to "booshy" instead. The file extension would be .og (for old Greg).

Only pair programming would suffer as the main philosophy of the language would we coding in isolation.
