I find it pretty annoying that we're experiencing yet anther hard fork that will split the chains. The bitcoin gold one is certainly not hostile towards bitcoin (they don't consider themselves bitcoin) but I dislike the fact that they have bitcoin in their name. It just causes a lot of confusion. People I know in real life who aren't into really into crypto asked me what bitcoin cash is and if it is bitcoin as well. I don't have anything against forks like bitcoin gold but I think people who fork the bitcoin chain need to come up with a name that doesn't have 'bitcoin' in it.
For a person that doesn't truly understand how the forks are done as I don't have any background knowledge to programming and coding then it is really hard to explain to someone who will just enter the bitcoin world. I do read the description of how it is done but there are some jargon that I can't understand so I try to explain it in a much simple way that we both can relate. With so many versions of bitcoin, people will be confuse of what bitcoin is the true one and we can expect as well that bitcoin gold is not the last one to be made because of a fork. Those people who doesn't even have an idea of what crypto is even considered altcoin as bitcoin so how much more if in its name there is bitcoin in it. I agree that the forks should be named with no "bitcoin" as it gets confusing and there are others who even claimed that they are the true bitcoin.
