I always thought the deck is called "Eldrazi Shops" because of Eye of Ugin, like Workshop, can (effectively) produce an obscene amount of mana, and like Worship the mana is restricted as to what can (effectively) cast. Also it's symbolic of the fact that (like it or not) this deck is a long awaited upgrade of the traditional Legacy Stomy shell.

Do you object to the Sage era Bubbling Muck decks having been called "Dark Tide"? Pox doesn't run Pox anymore. I think during ISD/RTR Standard there were graveyard decks being called " Dredge". Nothing out of the ordinary here.
