True that.

But it is part of what makes the difference. If everything was the same than
windows you could use windows instead of Ubuntu and accepting the names and
risks if you install something not supported is part of accepting Ubuntu. I
must say that some name are surprising the first time you see them but after
a while the names are just reminding that somebody had fun naming them.
Continue, your making a great job
