> that angular 2 should have been renamed.

Didn't it? I recall it was called AngularJS when it was v1.

(Yes, I'm purposefully nitpicky here, you're still right a completely new name could have been helpful here)

Nope, it wasn't. Before it was angular and angularjs, like some people say vue and vuejs Or react and reactjs.

After angular 2, Angular team decided to rechristen 1 as "angularjs". But they didn't (cause couldn't) change stackoverflow and other sites content

I rest my case then.
