I dunno. It's actually fairly natural to type 'new file.c'. The package
name doesn't conflict with anything else, and we seem to operate on a
first-come, first-serve basis. It matches the upstream name, which is
important.
If you want to talk about misleading and generic, let's talk about
imagemagick's 'identify' and 'convert' commands :-).
