I don't understand the objection to the names. You think someone who is not in the "Grafana world" would easier understand an arbitrary name like "Thor" than "Grafana Operator"? I have no clue what Mimir is, or Loki, but "Grafana operator" is clearly a kubernetes operator for deploying Grafana. Like a "postgres operator" I read about sometime. How are things from norse mythology supposed to make it easier to understand software components and the relations between them?

Naming things is hard and I don't mind if you cant tell what a software/service does by it's name but I don't like that there so little separation between the names:

> I just deployed the Grafana Oparator, oops I ment Grafana Agent Operator

Hopefully it gets better with Alloy
