Both points assume that only people currently contributing to the project will jump in for the upcoming name change work to be done.
This could be fixed in the openSUSE spirit of a do-a-cracy: if there are enough people stepping up to work on the name change process, it will be done.
If ‘ifs’ and ‘ands’ were pots and pans, there would be no need for tinker’s hands! In my opinion it's a bit unreasonable to assume that something as tedious as changing the name of something would suddenly spark a rise in contributors. Why would it? Especially as the existing contributors are not even set up anymore to onboard people. Look at all the failed attempts for people to "help" with general purpose infrastructure, our main announcement channel (news.o.o), our main documentation page (wiki.o.o), the system we organize our community with (connect.o.o) and so on and so on. I wish I would share your optimism. I don't.
If not then there's no harm aside the communities vote not being fulfilled.
Why do we need a vote then at all? If we are a do-a-cracy: Gather the people together that want to do this. Hash out what it entails. Announce your initial plan to gather feedback. Address the feedback you get. Do it. No voting needed....
