And none of the names make any sense except for RhythmBox. Banshee is a
music player, Totem is a video player and Midori is a browser. How was
anyone supposed to know that without clicking on the app first?

And the names Firefox and Opera tell you it's a browser? LOL

They don't, admittedly, but they're known a lot more than Totem, Krita
and Banshee are so people figure out what they do a lot faster.

If you had no experience with Linux whatsoever and I mentioned those
three pieces of software to you, what would you /think/ that they do?
