If you think it would be confusing to have a nu variant, just wait until there's a variant that's newer than nu:

"Hey, are you worried about the nu variant?"

"No, I'm worried about the new variant."

"I knew you knew about the nu one, but about the new one I didn't know you knew."

"Yeah, the nu one is not the new one. I'm also concerned about any that are newer than the new one."

"I knew the new one was newer than the nu one, but is there one that's newer than the new one?"

"Wish I knew. Guess ioata find out."
