It is an unfortunate name. I don't know why, given how inclusive the Rust community usually is and how eager they were to remove master/slave terminology, that they would choose to announce this effort under the banner of Nazi war tactics.

Yes, it is a well known fact that Germans have no word for 'lightning' anymore. Such a tragedy that 75 years later, we're still supposed to be fighting the Nazis on their terms.

I unironically agree with this. That's not a use of the generic German word for lightning, it's a specific reference.
