 I thought of that too, but considered latter part of your reasoning
con rather than pro. Spacerace makes sense in a small subset of
rulesets only (luckily it can be disabled) so having reference to it
prominently in the name would send a bit wrong message.

 For example Alien ruleset really shouldn't have spacerace in its
current form, though it is there in lack of any better way to
implement technological victory in a ruleset.
