a) it is a term defined by @dfn;
b) although it is not an Emacs-specific term, there are many other
non-Emacs-specific terms in the index, like `.mailrc', `7z', `Bazaar'
etc..
Thanks.
But now I think that my excuses aren't good enough.
I think if "object replacement character" graduates from conceptual
analog ("as if they were" => not an authoritative affirmation) to
user-visible design detail (say), then those reasons will be fine.
Maybe you were just being prescient!
