Why are special "subreddits", like all and popular, even in the same namespace as standard/user-made ones? Why not have... I dunno /s/all, or any other letter that's not already used?
Sounds like asking for trouble, sooner or later you might run into clashing issues.
Plus it makes it harder to differentiate whenever a subreddit is special, or just trying to trick its users that it is.

Did you guys also squat "social".
I've always wondered what's there.
