    is it? I checked the dictionary and it doesn’t seem like they’re doing anything in vain. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/vain

    1. having or showing undue or excessive pride in one’s appearance or achievements : conceited

    it’s literally the opposite of pride. they’re using his name to hide something they’re ashamed of

    1. marked by futility or ineffectualness : unsuccessful, useless vain efforts to escape

    also the opposite, they’re trying to use his name in an effective manner to solve a problem

    1. having no real value : idle, worthless vain pretensions

    same as the previous, it would have a worth to them

    1. archaic : foolish, silly

    again, they’re using it for schoolwork, which is educated, not foolish
