Reading some of the nautical references such as "pod" I had another thought...

The Elio is marketed as an "and" vehicle, just as smaller boat or "Launch" would be to a larger ship. It also pays amage to the Elio "launching" a new era in transportation.

One thing to keep in mind from this game, is that the term should be unique to the subject, i.e not shared with other subjects, and implicit in the observation of a group of them.
I particularly like a 'Formation of Elios' but it's already used as in 'Formation of Cliffs' etc. So that's a borrowed reference and not a specific.
For example if you say a 'flock' with out a subject population the 'Birds' is automatically assumed, Flock owns Birds, and therefore Birds owns Flock.

OK, maybe I should not be stating rules. Things can be more fun where chaos ensues.
