This is a tangent from the subject of this thread, but: No, that just says how it is implemented, not what it means / intends. See "the 7 stages of naming", here: http://arlobelshee.com/good-naming-is-a-process-not-a-single-step/

(That resource is talking about identifier naming, not keywords. But it applies anyway.)

You have a point, but the name is still not 'just bonkers', all things considered. Metonymy is justified in many cases, and I think this is one of them. What better name would you propose?
