Subject of this list claims that it is an educational project.

I dare say that it is more important to emphasize the learning part that 
the age.

So I dislike Kids or Littles, as that moves focus way from the main 
purpose of the project.


Also, I can imagine Sugar growing to support other variants of Learners 
than Kids, but I find the thought of Sugar evolving into a 
not-only-for-learning for Kids disturbing.
