I'm exactly 0% concerned about how "fun" it is to say who I'm employed with, but you do you I guess.

This is your career, so do with it as you like. Nevertheless, understand that there are people who hate the pet titles that "fun" investors like to give to their employees. Enjoy it "Waimonauts", lol.

It seems likely that the decision is made with that in mind to intentionally filter out people who would be put off by it.

People put up with many things for a salary. I doubt it is filtering out anybody.
