Lesson for naming features: never use terms such as “new engine” or “fast protocol” as they age poorly. Use codenames.

@niconiconi Also do not ever put Simple in your protocol name, it'll jinx it.

@niconiconi this goes for everything (unless it's a city and you want to constantly ironically remind visitors of the old history of its foundation)

relatedly, i was just thinking how a long time ago an FPS clan i was in died and some of the members wanted to restart it and decided to put phoenix-branded stuff on it all in reference to the renewal and i never rejoined because with that short-sighted naming decision i didn't think they'd be around long
