According to a net friend of mine, there is no Swiss cheese. At least, you wouldn't be able to buy one in Switzerland. It sounds funny for me being in a community intensely talking about the Swiss Cheese Model.
Naming things or concepts can be very tricky. Recently I was involved in a discussion about how we should find a name for an information object that defines what a document should be like but does not constitute the document itself.
All parents may face a similar problem because the name they give to their child becomes a part of the child's identity and presents what they hope for in their child but essentially the child's identity should be established by the child itself. The recent results for such efforts saw many Oliver's and Charlotte's in New Zealand.
A name may have powerful influence on and interact with how we see it, how we understand it, how we handle it and what we do with it. When we create something we should name it properly and make sure that it means properly what its name represents.
