Would you rather the name stayed the same but not one bit of the old
code be used?  None of the old options used, none of the old
documentation relevant, etc etc...?

Pup is new software.  Needs a new name.  up2date still exists in RHEL,
and won't be replaced.  How confusing would it be to have an up2date in
Fedora that is completely different from the up2date in RHEL?

Progress means new thinking, new applications, and new names.  These are
mentioned in release notes, package lists, mailing lists, blogs, etc...
