Is there a pun between Broccoli and Brotli I'm not aware of? There's another Brotli compression tool called Broccoli (written in Go), just a coincidence?

We codenamed the Brotli compressor in Rust “Broccoli” because of the capability to make Brotli files concatenate with one another (brot-cat-li).
