Re: [whatwg/fetch] Discussion: the term for non-preflighted request ("simple request") (Issue #1824)

sideshowbarker left a comment (whatwg/fetch#1824)

I would be happy to see the term _“non-preflighted request”_ elevated further in the spec itself — and happy to see that the MDN docs get updated to use that.

As far as the _“CORS-safelisted request”_, it seems me that could be potentially confusing to developers — in that at least some might mistakenly assume that any request that just uses a CORS-safelisted _method_ will necessarily be a “CORS-safelisted request”.

So instead using _“non-preflighted request”_ more widely/consistently seems better because it’s precise and unambiguous.
