One important aspect was missing in the announcement. The tool's new name
is a tiny part of a much bigger set of community suggested and requested
changes. Fully ignoring functionality changes that many community members
suggested is biased.

Mechanical edit claim was also never justified -- saying it's a mechanical
edit tool doesn't fit with the community's own definition, per wiki. Just
the other day the importance of using the right word was mentioned - when I
allegedly missed the word "deprecated". Let's keep things consistent, and
not dilute or change the meaning of existing terms to fit the immediate
agenda.
