Rob Tompkins commented on TEXT-58:
----------------------------------
Definitely. I just don't see a reason for delivering an array with a fixed
number of mutable elements. Regardless, the topic at hand is: should we fix
those constant style named factory methods?
I'm not sure whether we stick with the exact API from lang for the sake of ease
of migration and fix such issues in 2.0 or fix the oddities such as this in
1.0. I think I'm going to pose that on the M.L.

> Fix For: 1.0

>
> Class {{o.a.c.text.translate.EntityArrays}} contains methods names with all
> uppercase letters (and underscores).
> I understand that they create copies of _static_ constants (although even
> that is not true since they return arrays!), but are you sure you want to
> release a new component that does not follow the usual convention?
> I understand these comes from LANG but isn't it the right time to fix the API?
