Misleading implies malice or incompetence. The name wasn't fully clear, that's all. Ops intent is clear but maybe not clear enough for those expecting some completely learning path.
This wouldn't even be a 1 story point task to fix (after days/weeks of bikeshedding). seems to be a silly thing to abandon an entire project over a name.
If you contribute to a "Java guide" that's actually about JavaScript, you're probably wasting your time.
