I think "keto" encompasses atkins but is just "low carb" in general. If you get the book, atkins has many guidelines, levels, etc.
So, very similar, lots of overlap but not the same.
Atkins was named after a man. Keto is the more accurate and clinical word for the same concept which is ketosis, the metabolic state your body goes into when you eat nothing but meat.
We will have to agree to disagree. This is not worth arguing about.
