    For the same reason I still called Alphabet - Google, and Meta - Facebook. I refuse to let large corporations just try and shake off their shitty past with a name change.

      I see that as a kind of professional fu to Elon. As in “We know we need to call it X now, but since nobody actually does that, we’ll also add the actual name”.
