Actually X dosent stand for mystery, but actually for unlimited potential(in the sense you put).It is so because of its use in mathematics as the unknown factor in many equations, giving it the "potential" to be any number, from zero to infinite.

And I hope thats the meaning behind NX, would be beyond cool.

Actually no, it doesn't stand for mystery or unknown or undefined.  X- is the common math notation for a variable, an unknown value. The term X-factor when it comes to talent refers to a special, unknown, hard to define quality that can help someone succeed. It's rooted in the math origin, and it is definitely more about "mystery"  than unlimited potential. 

Which is basically what I said.It is an unknown factor used in mathematics for a value which you dont know.A value that can be literally any value until you discover how much it is.It is as much "mystery" as it is an unlimited potential.Because, if you could as low as 0 or as high as infinite, thats a potential.
