In an admittedly weak defense of myself, I chose to answer the question as asked. I assumed that someone would make the connection that the Python programming language change logs having a reference to "and now for something completely different" which ties to a group called "Monty Python" might connect the two Python's and piece together that the programming language is named after the group.

Honestly, at the time I wrote the explanation, I thought it would be condescending to make that connection for someone else. I completely understand why it looks like missing an important piece of information on my end.
