Additionally, it is usually called exactly that (“lesswrong”, “лессвронг”) in Russian anyway (a sort-of loanword / proper noun).

But the meaning is not obvious to an uninitiated, not the way it is in English.

I tend to suspect (on the scarce evidence I have) that the meaning in English is only obvious in hindsight.
