Because I want to be implementation independent. If for some reason
someone wants to change the name of the tool again (I know its not to
be expected), this way only the implementation of the isar-bootstrap
needs to be changed.
In theory with an alternative implementation of some interfaces other
distribution could be supported. I don't know in which direction isar
will go, but binding your interface names to tightly to the name of
some third-party products is not a good idea.

What I tried is called loose coupling and that is generally seen as a
good software design pattern.

The word "bootstrapping" is used in many projects and generally
describes starting something from almost nothing. Also this patchset
doesn't use "DebianBootstrap" is uses "isar-bootstrap".
