Curious about the name. Being from the Azores myself.

It's explicitly discussed at the end of the post:

  > According to the MTG fandom, “the Azorius Senate mediates and regulates the activities of all of the other guilds and of the plane despite their numerous decrees being ignored. The Azorius Senate are characterized as being aloof, bureaucratic, excessively formalistic, and fastidious, spending hours upon hours with legal documents and ensuring action, if any should occur, stringently adheres to protocol.” However, this is irrelevant, since azorius is unrelated to MTG.
My guess is it's a Magic: The Gathering reference.
While we are at magic: What is the problem of "using imagemagick in 2023"?
Most folks don't realize it runs arbitrary user-submitted code by default, well-crafted or malicious, and does a variety of things that should be checked.

I was among that folks, thank you!
