Abcdfhijkmnpqrstuvwxyz.com – can you spot what's missing and why it matters?

The URL abcdfhijkmnpqrstuvwxyz.com contains the entire Latin alphabet minus exactly 4 letters. Those 4 letters spell out the name of one of the world's most powerful tech companies.
The URL was registered by an Iranian animation agency after their YouTube channel was banned by that company's parent — itself named after the very concept of an alphabet.
But those same 4 missing letters also spell out the name of a famous Danish toy brand — the agency's visual signature.
Is this the first digital lipogram? A new art form I call lip.art?
Curious what HN thinks — intentional critique, hidden signature, or both?
