The naming fails at big cos is simply caused by having internal branding teams that need to justify their existence.

No, it's more like they sell to a bunch of verticals and they have checklist-orientated market segmentation where they can eke out a little extra profit selling a specific line to a specific industry because they need a specific doodad or certification.
