On the other hand, "Bayes" could make people say: "It is about some advanced statistics, that's not for me."
I guess the goal is to provide rationality to everyone who cares, not to appear like something for-specialists-only.
I'm not sure that "Bayes" or "Bayesian" has a strong public association with anything unless you're already interested in statistics. I've used it in several discussions and every time had to give a quick explanation of what it meant. (Good practice for honing my explanations and reinforcing the concept in my own brain, as well.)
