Toot

I realize that search has gotten terrible in general but damn y'all could we please stop naming tools with words that have meant something 100% unrelated for centuries, it does not help anyone find, learn or do anything.

In particular if you're naming it after militarist or combative stuff, how about don't. The "six-sigma black belt" people were embarrassing enough, we do not need this.

Free software doesn't need more barriers to accessibility and participation.

@mhoye at one point Jujutsu was a placeholder name that came with a 2-letter abbreviation that's unused and easy to type. I love using it but I fear they've passed the point where they could rename it...

@wjt I strongly believe in choosing prerelease project code names that are absolutely unsuitable for public consumption for exactly this reason.Project Snorklebonky is not getting thrown over the firewall as is.
