What's Carbon then? I haven't been paying much attention to Google but their naming has been confusing me.

Luna/Terra/Sol/Astra was a bit pretentious but at least the sizing makes sense. (I imagined the meeting... "Ok guys, we're getting mogged on naming... what's more epic than a Myth?" -"The SUN!")

Anthropic makes sense with the literary "scale" naming, mostly.

Is a Carbon bigger than an Argon though? Maybe it has to do with the atomic number?

Carbon is the next iteration (via RL training) of the Argon sized model.

Carbon is to Argon as Mythos is to Fable.
