I'm amused you're telling me to go ask users and yet you say yourself the
above as absolute truth.

I don't even need to go ask them, just look at our very own Google+
community here:

https://plus.google.com/communities/102942756287167879504

Scroll down for about a minute and count how many times people call the
system "KDE".

Then please do the same on Facebook here:

https://www.facebook.com/kde

and read "Recent Posts by Others on KDE" and again do count the occurance
of "KDE" as a system.

I actually have done my homework prior to "speculating" :)
