What does this have to do with politics? 'Meltdown' is a very common term.
Compare to "Heartbleed" and "Sandworm", which while at the time had a little mocking for being a bit too polished/branded [0], at least had the benefit of being relatively scoped. "Heartbleed" seems to have very few collisions period as a noun/proper noun [1]. And while "Sandworm" will perpetually collide with sci-fi fans of Dune (a subgroup that likely overlaps with security research), discussion of Dune's sandworms won't be trending on a weekly/daily cycle.
