Opus – an open source parallel corpus

If we have a scarce namespace, first come first served is not a much better way to allocate names than by popularity.
People have yet to successfully stamp a trade mark on words like Opus, and that is perfectly fine by me. Codecs and NLP datasets are distinct enough domains that any confusion will resolve itself quickly.
They intentionally "chose" to create a collision? Or they picked a good name and inadvertently created a collision?
There are dozens of other things called Opus. Just check the Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opus
It would be pretty hard to choose that name without becoming aware of at least one of these. The creators most likely just deemed these other uses too obscure and unrelated to matter, which is fair because it's pretty hard to pick a good name that hasn't already been used somewhere.
This is what Argos Translate uses (https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-translate).
Is this (also) a usable source of parallel texts for people doing language learning? (and software that will read it?)
