Come on, RxJS stole that (and "reactive") terms from prior work, which was arguably more interesting for anyone except web developers. So we can keep passing the blame about who steals SEO from who...
To be clear, I was only quoting RxJS as the most popular implementation in js for the Observable primitive. This has nothing to do with the Observable primitive. My complaint isn’t that this steals SEO, it’s that this becomes less searchable because any search for “Observable JavaScript” is going to turn up RxJS/MobX or one of the other libraries that implement Observable primitive types.
Edit: with regard to ReactiveX...well yeah. But it’s nice that it’s implemented in so many languages! (Not just RxJS) http://reactivex.io/languages.html
