KDE application naming is so consistently terrible that their default application launcher has to subtitle them with descriptions.

So they are discoverable after all and that is a problem how?
The subtitles are a user interface bandaid that has to exist because the naming is bad. With discoverable naming, the bandaid would not be needed. When you keep compounding bandaids, user experience breaks down.
(Minus Safari. I wonder why they went with Safari.)
This is all just conjecture though so take it with a grain of salt.
Off-the-wall crazy names only work for non-defaults because then you guarantee that those who need it will know what it does whatever the app’s called.
Your comment is the prime example of why Linux sometimes gets a bad rep for being too obtuse or inscrutable for the general public. These small things matter. They make a a real difference for the end user. And friction when trying find a single default app/utility is the last thing you want when trying to get people to use your OS.
