Has Tesla provided their rationale for introducing SR and LR?
My guess is that it is easier to explain to consumers that Long Range goes farther on a charge than Short Range. Explaining what a 75 kWh battery pack means is a lot more involved. Do you want to go short distance or longer? Longer! Ok, buy this one.
They don't have to change the name with incremental improvements. I had a '05 WRX, '08 WRX and '11 WRX...the HP/TQ changed, so did the EPA ratings and mileage, but the name was just WRX. Only Model Year changes to show the difference.
