Why does the author of the 'Sai Leela' book feel the need to explain the origin of the name 'Hemadpant'?

📖 Chapter 2

The author explains the origin of the name 'Hemadpant' to satisfy the natural curiosity of his audience. As mentioned in Chapter 2, the author notes that at the end of every chapter, the words 'Composed by the devotee Hemadpant' appear, which would likely cause listeners to wonder who this 'Pant' is. He considers the explanation of his naming ceremony to be a 'sub-story within the story' and an inspiration from Sai Baba himself. By sharing this story, he aims to reveal the appropriateness of the name and satisfy the curiosity that arises, before continuing with the main sequence of Sai Baba’s life story.
