Not gonna lie, not digging that branding. "Apple ID" just rolls off the tongue better.

Some project manager felt the need to justify their existence.

*Product Owner

Project manager moves the project along, product owners are the ones making product direction decisions.

And product marketing pushes for product renames like this. I wonder how much this will cost Apple in international trademark fees? Apple likes to recycle existing product names to save money (AppleWorks, AppleVision, iBooks, etc). I don’t think Apple Account was an existing trademark.
