While Insight II is being phased out in favour of Discovery Studio, it is still
widely used (for example at my workplace, which is why this review request
caught my eye).

Yes, I know and I'm surprised this hasn't come up even on their own mailing

I'm not saying it has to be renamed. I'm just pointing to a potential issue. :)

That's what I'd like to know. I've blocked FE-Legal here and mentioned this to
spot.
