//e is only on the boot screen for the Apple IIe enhanced. The un-enhanced uses IIe.

I had to be sure there wasn't a Mandella effect. The logo plate had "//e" reflecting the legacy of the Apple ///. (Also seen on the //c). Then the later Platinum version went to "IIe" since it was in the Macintosh & IIgs era.

The "Apple ][" in the ROM I'd guess came from how hastily they had to regroup after the Apple /// wasn't successful.

The un-enhanced uses IIe

It uses 'Apple ][', oddly enough.
