It's not considered user-friendly enough.

The historic meaning of ARPA is considered by some to be problematic in
the consumer space that Homenet is targeting.

It's unfortunate that it's the only top-level name under IAB control.
The current expansion of the acronym to "Address and Routing Parameter
Area" is itself not a good fit for this somewhat more generic use case.
