    Pick whichever answer you prefer. I like the one that blames the original nomenclature on the Irish.

    The names made sense in the way you suggest back in the day but they've gotten jumbled up as tactics and positioning have evolved over time.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    Since this is a random questions thread, why is a good question always ignored with another question here on BV?
