Not really, if you want your new platform to instantly become one of the most used websites in the world. Why should he care about twitter's brand name?

I don’t think this process is instant. I also don’t think there’s almost any adoption to the new feature associated with X. I for one don’t even know how to access these presumed hour long videos, much less watch them. Similarly, I almost never click the “read more” in longer posts on my feed because it takes me out of my feed.
If that's all he wanted, it would have been way cheaper to buy Yahoo a few years ago when it sold for $5B.
