It's easy to see why all this could be considered in need of some spring cleaning:

Bitcoin (agreed symbol with unicode)
BTC
Sats (no agreed symbol, no unicode)
Zaps (agreed symbol with unicode, excludes cashu)
Nutzaps (placeholder for cashu zaps)
MilliSats (needed for A2A)

Also the fact that there has been a constant and irresolvable argument about the Sats symbol for years is also not great; apps, terminals, etc. are basically choose-your-own-symbol (or choose none, which is also a choice). I get why people are proud of the organic nature of all this. But if we're being honest it's all pretty messy.
