It’s not a conspiracy, it’s a pop culture reference. Very unlikely it’s unintentional, given that Thinking About Roman Empire was a fairly notable meme of ‘23/‘24 (https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/how-often-do-you-think-about-...).

Could be not a primary cause for the naming - only authors can tell - but I doubt they missed the reference entirely. It’s just way too obvious.
