Post-hoc reasoning on my part? Yes, guilty as charged! :-)
Doesn't mean my conclusion is wrong, though. Looking back, wasn't it an inspired choice? Let's call it the wisdom of crowds.

Well, it sure is your conclusion, but it's based on conjecture. :)
If it really is a FAQ, just open with "The name "Haiku" was chosen from 15 suggestions in a poll back in 2002. A fitting name for our OS, as it turns out..." then go on with the explanation.
