Devs will never learn this because naming languages after common words is exactly the PL dev culture. It's not important to pldevs because they know the median number of users for a pl is 0, large companies know they can buy the search results, so names are chosen for reasons other than SEO.

People get around it by appending "-lang" or "-script" to the name and that solves the SEO.

What is PL?

I'm guessing it's programming language, but I don't think I've seen it abbreviated that way before.

It's very common in the language design circles, but yeah, programming language.

It's pretty common from where I sit, tbh.
