Please don't be so upset about Jeroen's argument. The X.2 spec just
hit the public and if you already discussed naming issues with
internal or external spec reviewers and are now tired about it, this
happened in closed circles.  A certain amount of criticism from the
broad public should have been expected ;-).

Yes, you're absolutely right!
