If you want Emacs to adapt in this point, it's on you to convince Emacs people
that this change is important.
You haven't managed to convince me, at least (I'm not an important "Emacs
people", just a happy user, mind you). Mentioning the alternative spellings
in the documentation and in the help, yes, by all means. But changing the
names in the code... not for me, at least.
There are far more important usability tasks, in my view.
Cheers
