OK, I'll rephrase it: if you believe the term is misleading than we need 
to discuss this *separately* from this issue, as we use the term 
throughout the spec consistently.

My personal point of view is that the term is good enough and changing 
out might cause confusion. That being said, I'm ready to be convinced 
otherwise.
