I’m not taking about me personally using it or not using it

Myopic take. Generally projects are healthier when they have a larger userbase

There’s almost always a backstory for why the makers choose the name they did, but that doesn’t change the harmful result. A bad name seriously limits how much the software will ever get adopted. Heck, if there was a FOSS project i cared about enough then i would fork it and keep everything the same except give it a more palatable name.

Why do useful FOSS things always have the worst names that make it hard to spread.

I understand your guess, but no, that essentially isn’t possible

iirc battery function management is supposed to happen at a firmware level. So hypothetically it shouldn’t be effected by what os you install. I think what you experienced was just a byproduct of keeping it plugged in 24/7
