This proposal is that Symbol.thenable can be false, or true (which is a no-op). A future proposal could make it *also* be a string or symbol (IsPropertyKey), and then change the method name.
In other words, I don't think there's a conflict, and I think that changing the method name could and should be a followon proposal.
