 with each of the 8 new S-T-A-N-F-O-R-D neighborhoods equally represented

Maybe since I was a precocious child I'm destined to get old, crusty, and cantankerous prematurely as well, but: the idea of being forced into neighborhoods named after the letters in my Alma mater's name can't help but make me react that, per Count Von Count, the S stands for Stupid. I assume the thinking is that letters of the alphabet will not one day be deemed problematic, but back in my day...

My recollection is that the S-T-A-N-F-O-R-D neighborhood names were only temporary placeholders, until the neighborhoods could name themselves.

One really needs to be named for Fred Rogers.
