### It Is About Trace Data

As it runs, `re-frame` logs "trace" as data (not strings).

## The Name
|
||||
|
||||
We debated internally about the name `re-frame-trace`. We knew that `-trace` was okay, but anemic because it talked about low level function, not higher level benefit. 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 too long. Naming things - its a nightmare! As is inertia. So, `-trace` it remains.
