@lanodan once you get past a certain sample size the amount of ways people refer to one thing will always include *many* incorrect references, especially when it comes to things like separators, dividers and similar such (it's the main reason I dropped leetspeak from my handle many years ago - there were like 5 ways to refer to me and it irritated the shit outta me).
I think one reason why GNU/thing is so prevalent however is in part because of how insistent the FSFs shitfit was over Linux being named that way, which led to a lot of people doing it to all their projects because their takeaway is that that is how GNU would prefer to be credited.
