Mitch renamed to BetterCallMitCH across 17 files

fedec65 ran a string-only rename pass replacing "Mitch" with "BetterCallMitCH" across UI strings, i18n files, system prompt, and docs. Internal identifiers like `MikeChat` and `mikeApi` were deliberately left unchanged.

Commit a8c96c91 touches 17 files with exactly +33/-33 lines - every change is a name swap. Surfaces covered: README, COMPLIANCE.md, the four i18n message files, the SYSTEM_PROMPT constant in chatTools.ts, the startup console log in backend/src/index.ts, the author field passed to applyTrackedEdits for DOCX redline attribution, and various UI layout strings.

The commit message calls out that internal identifiers are untouched. That's the right call for a brand rename: no risk of breaking API contracts or database column names.

The "MitCH" capitalization reflects the CH country code for Switzerland. This rename followed the BetterCallClaude merge by a short interval, suggesting the author was iterating on product naming in public.

So what Skip. This is cosmetic and specific to the fork's brand identity. The only signal of broader interest is that fedec65 is treating BetterCallMitCH as a distinct product rather than a set of patches to keep upstream-compatible.

Spotted something wrong? Or know the PR text has fresher detail than the writeup above?
