100% agree with Floh there. Changing such a thing is an open door to
a very obscure, hard to find, and unwanted potential "project breaker",
for a very minor added value...
Having to live with some minor technical debt due to badly named things
is acceptable I suppose.

Isn't there at lot code out there in the wild that would be broken by
such as change?
Yeah. TBH I'm not a fan of a name change even if the new name is
slightly more fitting. That's one of those obscure things that
suddenly breaks projects, usually at the worst possible time (even
with a deprecation note and period, this stuff is usually ignored). If
such a change would come with a real benefit (such as better
performance, or less code maintenance in the future) I'd be all for
it, but not when it's just one of the many "badly named things" in
computing :)
