First thing he'll do is write Torvalds and suggest a minor change to the naming.
given Linus' flair for writing replies, I would love to see him rip into Elon.
I really appreciate Linus trying to tone down the nastiness in his replies over the years, but I'd be willing to let almost anything slide if it means getting a proper, old-school Torvalds tear-down of Musk.
LinuX: in honor of the LinuX Foundation's new sponsor, X.
He'll get very virulent in the X vs Wayland debate before he even learns what these mean.
