IMO any of Requestor, Verifier, or Evaluator would be preferable to Consumer. Except, Requestor could be confused with 'holder', the person/entity asking for the original issuing, since at the start they are 'requesting' that a credential be issued for them -- which they then take elsewhere to be Evaluated or Verified (or, currently, Consumed). But as you noted, with multiple possible systems in play -- finance, education, payments, government -- it's going to be hard not to cause at least some confusion somewhere. Steven
