So out of curiosity I wrote simple basic questions:
“Why this tool was created? What was the reason for creating such tool? Why it was named this way?“
Suggesting that if I didn’t figured it out by myself perhaps some one else who also wish to join the field and looking for entry point to try something in practice would also be confused and thus answering those simple basic questions would really help to the beginners.
With experience of entering into many new fields I know that usually there is a lot of confusion in the beginning about basic stuff .
I also suggested that those are obvious reasons why people ask questions and didn’t expect to be ‘bullied’ for basic simple questions. There were no one word of aggression in text. Perhaps seeing aggression there requires certain level of misplaced imagination.

So why the simple question doesn’t sound benign to you? Usually there is a fun story about the name for example GNU is Not Unix etc … and sometimes it holds some clue about functionality and then it’s easier to remember.
> Because
well… it’s still unclear
