Why is it translated that way? Shouldn't it be {lo mlatu pe la tcecir}?

That's more of a mouthful, this is a stylistic choice, and it's a cute play on words; it also loses little since the idiom that may have sparked the name is long dead and wouldn't have translated into lojban anyway.

Ah, SWH. I see :D
