Description

### Description

#13568 introduced this cool new aggregation engine that needs a name. To keep referring to it as "the new aggregation engine" gets tedious.
I asked people for [suggestions](https://app.sli.do/event/8jy7jPh5KxXZVK4LJCR1WA) at Community Over Code and also mentioned this to @epotyom and @Shradha26. I'm curious what the broader community thinks.
