You aren't going to change not just the 15+ year habits of how people
refer to Fedora, but the even longer habits of how people call Linux

Again, I'm not out to immediately change colloquial usage. Although I *do*
think that would be a positive, that's not in scope here. It's about how we
formally talk about things ourselves, and this change is just about one very
specific small way in which we do that.
So, a community that historically hates typing extra stuff and thus
likes to remove vowels and occasionally other letters from commands,
who primarily "talks" via text communication, is suddenly going to add
the extra word Linux in their communications?
Wouldn't our communications be *informal* and therefore not (in
Matthew's words) "how we formally talk about things ourselves"?
