Grok is an old ttrpg term that means "to intuitively understand something." As in "I totally grok how to play as an elf in ad&d but playing as a wizard is totally over my head"

edit: correct the autocorrect

It's also an old Log parser and search function for Linux/unix. So it's logical he would steal it like he stole the xorg iconography.
