Worse, it *still* uses the word "cruft" in its UI (specifically, in the
progress bar, that#s where I found it, I didn't check for other places),
although it was renamed to Computer Janitor to get rid of "cruft", which
is computing jargon.

Please refer to a thread on ubuntu-devel-discuss in November,
specifically this post from Matthew East:

And this one:

And that one by Lars, along with the subthread that follows:
