Only if the naming confusion kept them from actually bothering to understand what the product is?

The confusion is when I say “I have a terrible time using Copilot, I don’t recommend using it” and someone chimes in with how great their experience with Github Copilot is, a completely different product and how I must be “holding it wrong” when that is not the same Copilot. That Microsoft has like 5 different products all using Copilot in the name, even people in this very comment section are only saying “Copilot” so it is hard to know what product they are talking about!

Naming confusion is a pretty good predictor that it's not worth understanding what the product is.

Apparently, so yes.
