Am I the only one who only noticed that it is _conary_ not _coronary_ near

OLS: An introduction to Conary

I looked through the Specifix site and technical presentation, and found no explanation of why they chose this name.

It is an Irish place and family name, so it may have sentimental appeal to someone at Specifix.

Or maybe we are now consing sylbles, as in "Conary arty blage."
