Tesla Model Naming - I think they missed a trick

OK OK - its Sat Morning and I am bored (last time I was this bored, I went onto the Tesla Trade In page and sold my 2020 M3P for a LOT more than I owed on it and got a 2022 M3P).

Anyhoo, I was just on the Tesla Website and of course saw the S3XY cars and thought...hmm....maybe they should have named the cars like this :

Model S = No change
Model 3 = No change and kind of makes sense being the cheapest model to have the lowest number (since they could not use "E")
Model X = This should have been called "Y" because the the letter looks like it has gull wing doors
Model Y = This should have been called "X" as its a cross over SUV

I know, I have way too much time on my hands :(
