Haha. Key-value is meant (IMO) to show the connection between the key and the value. You're right, it's not a "key value" store, where "key" is an adjective modifying "value" to show that is only stores the most important values. The "-", again IMO, shows that there is a mapping between each key and each value. But geez, I think we knew what was meant :-)
