My 'delay' suggestion was before the specs was split in two attributes. i.e It was only 'lazyload' then. And for that, I assume the reason for the reverse semantics is just a simple mishap that occurred then.

The difference is to what >point in time the load is postponed. Agreed. But if 'lazyload' matches its proper semantics, I don't have an issue with 'postpone' in itself. 'priority'? maybe.. The 'post' in postpone actually helps the post-'defer' notion for scripts.
