I still stand by what I said because it’s true. The names origins are not as you say and the SSG has never really preferred it, it’s gained popularity because of online usage so ISPR put it there for the public consumption. I doubt the people making these graphics and videos are from the SSG Or even the army anyways.
If you do some searching you’d realize most of the times the name “black storks“ Is used…it’s the Indian media using it.

Hope you’ve been following these videos of Uc qardas in Azerbaijan From this channel (
https://youtube.com/c/azerbaijan_mod) The training here would be more along the lines of what we’d expect it to be, when it’s not just for cameras, notice how none of the actual training is shown Unlike by ISPR where they just play out some of it simply for the ceremony or the camera.
Kind of wish SSG could have taken its own gear though, I know that’s not standard practice but it makes them look under-equipped using foreign gear.

I’ve been present at Kallar Kahar when SSW trains, it’s not just a fluid room clearance or In and out hostage rescue, they stop a dozen times every hour because even the smallest mistake is pointed out, flagging your own teammate during training is a major no go, you’d get more than just chewed out for that. For ceremonies and camera they let it pass. The recent PATS “reality show” was a cringe fest but if you somehow found the patience to sit and watch through it you’d notice how careful they are with their muzzles and triggers in it, even just being regulars.
