Why has point-at-bol changed to line-beginning-position?
Why has point-at-eol changed to line-end-position?

To my eyes, the defaults (point-at-bol) and (point-at-eol)
are superior to line-beginning-position and line-end-position.

I could just set an alias to get the old behaviour on my machine,
but I can't see the point of the new labels.
