I'll take this offline with our environments team as we look to address the discoverability issues for the Dev Box team. However the name of the extension will likely not change as it is used for other Azure related functionality e.g viewing Azure DevOps related activities on the Dashboard page via widgets and in the future likely Azure VMs.

Alternatively, we could provide the Store description for extensions within the extensions page. This way users can get more info on the extension and what it provides without having to click "Get" to show the Store page
