The Space Shuttle Enterprise was originally going to be named after the Constitution, another warship ("Old Ironsides"), before the Star Trek fans weighed in And the Star Trek pandering probably only happened because it is also technically a reference to a famous US navy ship

So maybe in their world they went with the legendary US carrier rather than Old Ironsides And then maybe in this universe after Challenger exploded they went with the plan to refit Enterprise to go into service to replace it, rather than building Endeavour

okay, that works this is the first explanation I've ever heard that worked
