I think this was to make it simple in the single server case.
What's the name of the single server you're using? "server"!
Yes, if you're in a more complex environment with a DAS and
separate server instances, it's weird that the name of the
DAS is "server". I guess we figured that was already a more
complicated situation and people who understand how to manage
a domain like this would be able to figure out the naming.
We were more worried about the person only ever using a single
server and having to figure out what a "das" is.
