Trino, not Presto.

Presto, created by FB, was required to let any FB engineer merge without OWNERS (because Facebook doesn't have OWNERS files unless it would create a SEV1).

Subsequently, original creators of Presto forked it to PrestoSQL.

So Facebook trademarked the name Presto.

So creators renamed it Trino.
