Why not a tit?



Because bi- is two, tri- is three. Ti- is meaningless, and not good enough of a joke to make up for it.


They renamed the biggest ML conference (NIPS) over the same joke, so don't count on it.


Why? Just because it's spelled identical to a human body part?

This kind of shit is one of the most bizarre things about human society (or the prude cultures of it at least), to consider the most natural things so taboo and a "joke" to mention.
