As I said, "in an ironic twist of linguistic history".

This is a story about a new helicopter, in India. But in the america's long ago "indian" was applied to indigenous groups by people looking for a route to India who didn't know where they were. And then, centuries later, the names for those groups were adopted as names for American helicopters. It is a long joke that I guess not everyone can appreciate.

Thanks! It totally went over my head, I thought you must have had some justification due to the quotes.
