A nameplate on a vehicle != a technical standard from a technical standards
body. It concerns me that an emphasis on "marketing" is being placed ahead
of the technical standard design and details. Perhaps we should start a
discussion of incorporating blockchain and AI so as to really improve the
marketability of the effort. An associated memecoin would be even better.

There are many things Dave and I might disagree on but this is not one of
those things. I wholeheartedly agree with Dave that a name change is
appropriate and necessary. The sooner the better.
