Right - the character is introduced as "Goto" on deception, and the game doesn't change his name hours into the story over a technicality.

Also, no, since I was replying to a guy who admitted having read none of the EU. I pointed out the most recent example of it being ruined, without a pedantic breakdown of the EU and its subsequent scrubbing and replacement, because I wasn't yet talking to a pedant.

And thanks for the concession. I'll take your snark as a symptom of your poor social skills.

We're arguing back on forth on the details of how Star Wars droid naming conventions have changed over time on reddit dot com, so I'm pretty sure that relative to normal, well-adjusted human beings, neither of us have any business claiming the high horse on social anything.

I'm unsure why you addressed GOTO for a second time - jokes aside I can see how the unique circumstances make it a bit of an edge case - but not any of the other examples I brought up in the last post. Or, again, why this extremely esoteric detail is a "ruination" of anything, or how it could even possibly make sense for no one in the entire Star Wars galaxy to ever happen to use a different method to come up with a designation-based droid nickname.
