Graphite should check the dictionary before naming itself after a soft, black, lustrous form of carbon.

Yeah well at least the OG graphite is not software.

Sure, but if the concern is googling "graphite" and finding results that aren't the Graphite you're looking for, it's the same problem. There will always be more results for graphite, the mineral than graphite, the enterprise-ready monitoring tool.

If that's not the concern, then what's the big deal?
