    Is there a backstory for this being named Vx? Seems a bit too close for comfort to the VxWorks OS, though there seems to be no connection.

      That story is buried in a long chat thread between me and Gemini.

        fwiw I recently tried this with ChatGPT. The result (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;bil-lang.org" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;bil-lang.org) came after I dumped the LLM as a name suggester. As a checker and idea source it was fine. The language name space is quite crowded!
