Greetings

Anybody else finding the DISTRO_FEATURES_BACKFILL_CONSIDERED and MACHINE_FEATURES_BACKFILL_CONSIDERED variable names confusing?

According to the documentation about "feature backfilling" (https://docs.yoctoproject.org/ref-manual/features.html#ref-features-backfill), these variables allow to exclude some features from being backfilled.

I'm not a native English speaker, but for me, "considered" carries the intention to include a feature, not to exclude one.

Shouldn't we call these variables DISTRO_FEATURES_BACKFILL_EXCLUDED and MACHINE_FEATURES_BACKFILL_EXCLUDED instead ?

Thanks in advance
Cheers
Michael.
