If "racket" is related to "scheme" by being an illegitimate scheme, I think
"cartel" could be a good choice for "an even more illegitimate scheme". Plus,
it's almost an anagram of racket.
#lang cartel

It isn't. It's been mentioned several times that "Racket2" is
currently just a placeholder for whatever it ends up being called.
That's actually really cool that you had both available to taste. My analogy

"New Coke" was horrible ... tasted like the bastard child of Pepsi and
Dr. Pepper.
And no matter what they claim, "Classic Coke" never was (and still
isn't) the same as the original. Classic Coke hit shelves a mere 3

Changing the canonical syntax seems like a bigger jump than from PLT Scheme
to Racket.
Perhaps a name change would help.
I looked up English language anagrams of racket and found two: retack and
tacker.
*retack** [Nautical] To tack or alter course by sailing into the wind for a
