I interpreted the string " :-D"  as meaning that the suggestion was
not intended to be taken seriously.  And I wasn't going to join in
this thread at all, but apparently it is necessary to defend the
original naming of Sage (which started out as an acronym), since back
in 2004 or whenever many people told William it was never going to
work, or be successful, or whatever,  and I fully understand why it
did nto seem necessary to bother about other packages with the same
name doing different things.  Hindsight is another matter.
