[theme-reviewers] Need Clarification on theme name which is fine as per the guideline and as per the other theme names !

I'm mostly in agreement with Chip.  I'd rather be worrying more important
things.

But, let's be honest; the theme name does violate the existing guideline of
not using "SEO-seeded text".  I'd really not like to start opening up the
door to theme names like Premium Photography, Premium Magazine, Premium
Something, and so on. I don't think it'd be a good idea to set that
precedent.

In the future, please CC an admin on the ticket in question.
