Also I wonder why they never pronounced it “Ten-Code” (after all “Mac OS X” was “Mac oh-ess Ten”)

Apple likes to write ten as the roman numeral X - that does not mean all uses of the letter X are the number 10.
For that matter it should’ve been renamed 11code alongside the release of macOS 11!
Whoever flagged my adjacent comment, “applaud” means praise. I applaud the person who downvoted my bad joke. I was sincerely agreeing with the downvote of my own comment, not objecting to the downvote. I will however object to being moderated for agreeing with being moderated.
