Comment (by jkqxz):
While I agree that the ITU name should have been used to be consistent,
this is probably too painful to change now. The hevc name appears in many
different places, and all would need to be deprecated with support for
both names over an extended period - it just isn't worth the trouble.
(Also, I think it is quite likely that some people would disagree with the
change - in some contexts the HEVC name has significantly more recognition
than H.265, sufficiently so that changing it could cause a lot of
confusion to users.)
