Back when computer mice were being invented, someone in a boardroom had to stand up and pitch the name. The excitement was real—until someone clarified they weren't naming it after the biological swimmers. The deflation is palpable.
Fun fact: The computer mouse was actually invented in 1964 by Doug Engelbart, and it got its name because the tail-like cable coming out the back made it look like a rodent. Simple times, simple naming conventions. No focus groups, no A/B testing, just "looks like mouse, call it mouse." Meanwhile, modern developers spend three weeks bikeshedding whether to call a variable userData or userInfo.
