Why Not “ChiCom Tower”?

Lemme see if I’ve got this right.

The first big tenant for the rebuilt World Trade Center is to be the Chinese Communist Party (at one or two removes).”Freedom Tower” has been decisively dropped as a name for the new building. “One World Trade Center” is more marketable, we are told.

It would, of course, be absurdly over-suspicious to see any connection between these two news stories.
