Thank you! Is this the future? Everyone gets to have their own cutesy translation of everything? If I want "kubectl apply" to have a Tron theme, while my coworker wants a Disney theme. Is the runbook going to be in Klingon if I'm fluent in that?

I hope not. Homebrew is a great example of why boring tools shouldn't invent quirky terminology.
