That name is really close to ask to be sued... remember the Mikerowsoft vs Microsoft.

Better rename it to “I Can’t Believe it’s Not Cat Soup 3D”

yeah, it didn't think much of it until I started seeing a lot of stars on Github.. I think I'll rename it Dovetail3D

The name also makes no sense anymore. Isn't it obvious that "SketchUp" is itself just a thin pun that references the word "ketchup"? They're just calling it nearly the exact same thing except that now "ketchup" on its own no longer has anything to do with drawing or sketching anything!!

Seems to have been renamed to BenchUp now?
