Jason Gerlowski commented on SOLR-11013:
----------------------------------------

I know I was one of the folks suggesting "coll" above, but I no longer thing 
it's a good idea.

I just don't see anyone else doing these sort of abbreviations in their 
user-facing APIs.  I think the industry has moved pretty definitively towards 
clarity over conciseness in API contexts.  Saving 6 characters or whatever in a 
URL that's gonna be abstracted behind Java code or a Postman template or a curl 
request just doesn't seem worth the tradeoff.

> Would like propose that {{/v2/c}} be removed in favour of {{/v2/collections}} 
> only:
> * there being two ways to do the same thing is potentially confusing
> * {{/v2/c}} is short but _c_ could stand not only for _collections_ but also 
> for _cores_ or _cluster_ or _config_ or _cloud_ etc.
