> Some of the claims above are aspirational. `re-frame-trace` [remains a WIP](https://github.com/Day8/re-frame-trace/issues/118).
## Sausage
## Of Sausage And Sizzle
We debated internally about the name `re-frame-trace`. While `-trace` is accurate, it is 100% sausage because it talks about low level function, and not higher level benefit (sizzle, sizzle). I wanted to call it `vox-datum` (voice of the data) but that was cruelly rejected, for reasons I don't care to remember. The pain. I mean, who the hell doesn't like a Latin name?? Philistines. Anyway, `-insight` and `-illumination` are the benefits, but they made the name waaaay too long. Naming things - it's just a nightmare! As is inertia. So, `-trace` it remains.
Internal discussion about a name meandered unproductively for a while. Initially, it was `re-frame-trace`, which is accurate, sure, but it is also 100% sausage because it talks about low level function, and not higher level benefit (sizzle, sizzle). Side stepping the issue, I wanted to call it `vox-datum` (voice of the data) but that was cruelly rejected, for reasons I don't care to remember. The pain. I mean, who the hell doesn't like a Latin name?? Philistines.
**Update:** a name change to `re-frame-10x` is on the cards. Disapointingly, my latest suggestion, `TenMinutesByTractor`, was also rejected. I shake my head. Why can noone see that we're all "code farmers" by profession?
Now, the benifits are `-insight` and `-illumination`, but adding either made the name waaaay too long. Naming things - it's just a nightmare! Who knew?
Finally, `-10x` cheekily materialised, delivering over 100 decibels of audacious sizzle, and consequently an expectation for us to live up to. A 10x programmer starts by having 10x more knowledge and insight - so make that tool, smarty pants.
