On the one hand, I was pretty much able to notice that pattern.
On the other hand... Too damned bad. It's British Petroleum, British Aerospace, and the Hongkong and Shanghai. If they really want to change the name, they can bloody well change the name. All the way in, or all the way out.
And as to possibly offending, say, Lufthansa or other overseas partners... 40% is not 51%. Too damned bad.
