我想到了两个理由，它们是否“好”由你决定：
1.) 如果你从“具体”名称重命名为“通用”名称，你会丢失信息。我的文件夹目前名为 PT8，这告诉我它最初（很可能）是用 Paratext8 创建的，我可能会在里面找到一些源自 Paratext8 的特定内容，而这些内容可能不再适用于 Paratext9。你还可以看出我不喜欢复杂项目根目录下的长路径。
新的 PT 概念似乎是：你从 Paratextn 开始，可以在同一数据上更新一个或多个版本。因此，对于技术人员和支持人员来说，一眼就能看出本地“历史”的深度可能会有帮助。
2.) 第二个理由：每个更改都固有危险，这些危险通常在更改之前甚至刚更改后都不明显。
几天前，我们在这里讨论了 PT 图标，我个人的结论是应该完全移除图标，因为大家一致认为图标无法传达信息，需要“学习”才能理解。因此，它们只是占用了宝贵的屏幕空间。对我来说很清楚，像移除所有图标这样深刻的更改听起来很棒，但很可能会在日后造成一些意想不到的麻烦。目前不值得这样做；我没有继续追究这个话题。
问问自己或其他用户，重命名 PT 项目文件夹会带来什么实际的好处，而不是问“为什么不呢？”。俗话说“不要动系统”，其中蕴含智慧。（哎呀，我现在听起来很老派了。）（如果未来出现一个全新的 PT 激进版本，包含所有这些令人惊叹的新想法，比如没有图标、键盘友好的人体工程学设计，我希望那时我能抽出时间来帮助测试。）
Two reasons come to mind, whether they are “good” is for you to decide:
1.) If you rename from “specific” to “generic” you lose information. My folder is presently called PT8 and that is telling me that it was initially created (most likely) with Paratext8 and that I might find some specific stuff inside that originated from Paratext8 and might no longer apply to Paratext9. You can also tell that I do not like long paths at the root of complex projects.
The new PT concept seems to be that you start with Paratextn and can update for one or more generations on the same data. So for technicians and support staff it might be helpful to know the depth of the local “history” at a glance.
2.) Second reason: Every change has got inherent dangers, that are typically not obvious before or even right after the change is made.
A few days ago, we discussed PT icons here and my personal conclusion was that icons should be removed altogether because people agree that they do not communicate and need to be “learnt”. So they just take precious screen space. It is clear to me that such a deep change like removing all icons sounds great but will most likely cause some unexpected trouble down the road. Not worth it at the moment; I did not persue the subject.
Ask yourself or other users what actual benefits you would gain from the renaming of the PT projects folder, rather than “why not?”. There is wisdom in the saying “never touch a system”. (Oh bother, I sound old now.)(If there ever is a new radical generation of PT with all those amazing new ideas included, like no icons, keyboard-friendly-ergonomics, then I hope it falls into a phase, when I can make some time to help with testing.)
