[Hongbin Lu] I might provide a minority point of view here. What confused me is inconsistent style of the resource name. For example, there is a "container" resource for a swift container, and there is "secret container" resource a barbican container. I just found it odd to have both un-qualified resource (i.e. container) and qualified resource name (i.e. secret container) in the same CLI. It appears to me that some resources are namespaced and others are not, and this kind of style provides a suboptimal user experiences from my point of view. I think the style would be more consistent if all the resources are qualified or un-qualified, not the mix of both. > > > We could so the same thing and use the text “container_infra”, but we > felt that might be burdensome for interactive use and wanted to find > something shorter that would still make sense. > > Naming resources is hard to get right.
