You are describing everything Microsoft has done since at least the late 90s.

Things were named fine back then. Small Business Server, Office, Frontpage, Internet Information Server, Visual Studio...

That was back when they were going wild naming everything "Active". Active Desktop made sense, Active Directory? What made that "Active". ActiveMovie? It's just a video playing framework... ActiveX?? X?? ActiveSync, I don't want my sync to be active. ActiveStore was apparently a thing?
