yep, she's right. actually SC was never a name to be targetted to the public.
same thing for names of tecnologies (there should be advertized as developer
tools but never to the end user) so in the ui should never ever appear
nepomuk, phonon or akonadi for instance.
different discourse for products that are directly in front of the user:
"plasma desktop" or "amarok" or "gwenview" are more like microsoft word, iOS
or iTunes
