Actually, the software from the suckless group follows this rule in a sense, as we also have a module for freedesktop, gnome, kde, etc. > 2.

This is a somewhat weak argument, as filenames only matter when editing – you'd still be linking to a Nazi group in the homepage, which matters much more. On the other hand, Guix users often complain about suckless-style software as it is in fact not the most Guix-friendly to handle. Simply renaming the file to "suckmore" would in my opinion be adequate, and switching to maintained forks of their stuff ethical. Regards, Liliana
