Remove gyroid and rename cross hatch to gyroid 2.0

Please remove gyroid infill from bambu studio and rename cross hatch to gyroid 2.0

Since cross hatch came out to replace gyroid over a year ago there is no point in gyroid being there.
https://www.reddit.com/r/BambuLab/comments/1crq25n/introducing_crosshatch_infill/
Every attempt to educate people about it turns into a fundamentalist debate about “gyroid vs grid” completely missing the point. The “cross” in the name makes them think self crossing immediately and not even look at it.
“But self intersecting, dude…” gyroid isnt even the third best choice for that anymore.
Its really problematic for beginners to get force fed the idea there isnt anything worth looking at apart from gyroid.
Gyroid users for the most part dont even know why they are using it but are very vocal about that its the only one.
So to make it more beginner friendly I would like to see gyroid removed and cross hatch renamed to gyroid 2.0 so everyone is happy.

I compiled a detailed review and postet it in some facebook groups but as expected no one reads it and defaults to bashing grid instead of looking at cross hatch.

No need to remove because that would break existing models. No need to remove because no infill got ever removed. Also the choice for infill might be more than any params you’ve mentioned, coyld very well be aesthetic.

What could be done is to follow OrcaSlicer pr:

The pr sorts/groups infill patterns which better explains infill usage

And also link within slicer to wiki going into each infill

The second link, to the infill Wiki, is a great resource even if you are not using OrcaSlicer.

BTW, CrossHatch is the OrcaSlicer default infill.
