Computer scientists are bad at naming. Let marketing handle it.

The other three are memory management and off-by-one errors.

Marketing is even worse at naming things! You don't see programmers having 2 weeks of meetings to come up with a terrible, terrible name and still feeling good about themselves afterwards.
