Especially given all the negative sentiment in the developer community towards Devin. You would think they would want to distance themselves as much as possible

Agreed. In fact, I thought this was an iteration on the previously announced "Devin" project until I realised that they have different spelling.
Perhaps because of the "dev in chat" meme reference? When (game) developers would show up in the public chat channel.
Might “Theone” perhaps be a better one to use? Still stays somewhat true to the pronunciation of Devin, but with an emphasis on being The One that might actually work /s
