I saw EAGLE and thought it's going to be about PCB design. Was left disappointed.

Well, there are only so many nouns, and even fewer "cool-sounding" ones. For better project differentiation, do you think we should instead be naming things "ZurgGlurg327"? I'm sure you can find a completely-unique combo for each thing, but good luck remembering the name!

docker images and ubuntu releases use an adjective, this could at least allow some alternatives like bold/supreme/decisive/depressed eagle (or just use battery staple)

autorouters are the closest thing to "just spin some cycles to do this for me"

Same here. KiCad is great, but I miss EAGLE.

It feels like AI folks are particularly careless about checking if a name has been used in computing before.
