To be fair, I read the article but still don't know what greentea is. The article never directly refers to the new GC by this name. It appears in a command line option value, that's about it.

I don’t know if you’d count that as directly referring to it by name but it’s there.

The sentence reads

The new garbage collector may be enabled by setting [blurred] at build time

to me, where exact flag value is automatically ignored, because I don't care what's in there. I don't pay attention to such irrelevant details
