In some contexts rocky is synonymous with unstable or unreliable, so I assume that's the issue some people have.

Really? My first thought was the "Rocky Mountains" which seem like an apt metaphor for something slow, stable, and rock-solid. The logo even looks like a mountain peak.

My second thought was Rocky Balboa... but I figured that probably wasn't right.
