I never saw the reference until people started pointing it out, so it says nothing about me. But if others do, then I'm not so attached to the terminology that I'd put up a fight to defend it.
What I don't really understand is why people are so outraged by renaming a bunch of stuff. It's a trivial change, who cares?
Have you ever heard of "give an inch, take a mile"?
Today is a trivial thing. Tomorrow could be something more serious but then, it would be too late to complain about it (and today social media is the best example, you can see how peoples' lives are ruined by things taken out of context or exaggerating them).
The list of changes already includes innocuous terms like "sanity check", "grandfathered", and "dummy value" so, frankly, it's pretty hard to make the case that the "take a mile" isn't already happening.
