Assets.xcassets vs. Media.xcassets

In Xcode 16, when I use File > New > Project to create a new iOS app project, Xcode automatically creates an asset catalog file called Assets.xcassets in the project.

However, if I later use File > New > File from Template, for example to add an asset catalog to an embedded Swift package within a project, Xcode suggests the default filename Media.xcassets for the file, instead of Assets.xcassets.

Why is the default name for this file different in each context?

Thank you for explaining this troubling consistency issue which causes me to lie awake at night.

The name can be what you want. It is good to have a naming convention for apps you create.
