What happened to Centrepoint tower?

Dear Sydney Tower
I am curious as to why the name has been changed from the mildly interesting ‘Centrepoint’ to the extremely boring ‘Sydney Tower’? It’s such an uninspiring name for an otherwise impressive building and landmark.
Perhaps you should call it the ‘Power Tower’ or ‘The Mass-o-Tron’ (‘mass’ standing for massive, ‘o-tron’ meaning that it’s heaps cool). Or how about ‘The Great Aussie Finger’? Anyway, these are just a couple of suggestions. I’m sure I could come up with more if necessary.
Let me know, Luke.
I got a letter back, but they seemed to have misunderstood me - they called me Luke Bortolo (my last name is Bartolo) and they apologised for the 'experience I had', but altogether ignored my suggestions - saying that management had 'reviewed the situation', whatever that means! So I wrote them another letter, which they invited me to do if I had further issues I wanted to clear up.

Dear XXXXXXXXXX
Thank for you letter back but it seems like you didn’t even read my letter. You apologise for the experience I have but this apology is unnecessary - all I was writing about was the name of your building. Where did I speak of an ‘experience’?
I wish to know why the name was changed from Centrepoint to Sydney Tower, and I was wondering if you might change it again and that if you did if you could call it something cooler?
In what way did Westfield management review the situation? Did you all sit around and have a meeting and discuss my proposed names for the tower? If so, please tell the other managers that I have other names that they might like more, like ‘The Silver Serpent’ and ‘The Thunder of Down-Under’.
Thank you for inviting me to ask your further ‘assistance’… I wish to just clarify my above questions as your letter confused me and seemed a little vagye.
Thank you, Luke Bartolo (not Bortolo).
They didn't reply this time.
