Fjord: Yes, it is.
Wadufi: Why?
Fjord: For instance, what's the first switch-engine based puffer arising from b3s23/C1 soups that is neither BLSE nor GPSE?
Wadufi: Pony express, of course.
Fjord: And the second?
Wadufi: ...
Fjord: The third? Fourth?
Wadufi: ... Well.

Wadufi: So your logic is that being the first makes a pattern well-known and recognized by more people.
Fjord: This makes sense to me. For instance, every life enthusiast is familiar with the first natural glider, the very spaceship that is generated by a Herschel and spotted by human.
Wadufi: Then do you know in which direction it travels at first? Northeast?
Fjord: …?!

So your logic is pony-related objects are great.
