Language matters indeed. I guess that if you'd said "I find coming up with a name with the word 'driven' in it for such a common thing somewhat grandiose." you'd not have provoked such a strong reaction, but you didn't. You said note-taking is "frivolous" (which to me suggested you think it's a bad idea!). You don't acknowledge the difference to "just taking notes", which might make it a not-so-common thing.
