And somehow that dampening effect is felt, even though I have no
personal stake in the "element" design.

I think we're past that point.  If I were Jeff Spaleta, I'd threaten
to deliberately derail this discussion, but I'm not so I'll let it
fizzle itself out.

Must it?  I disagree.  FWIW, I think the capital "C" conveys a
connection to C[arbon].  Carbon's ability to form chains is thought to
be an important reason for the dependance of life on this element. 
That's a powerful analogy for what we want Fedora Core to be.

Besides, we're not permitted to use any hats and so I rather like the
lower case downplaying of the fedora "f".
