Comment (by joemcgill):

 I understand @flixos90 objection to using the underscore here, given the
 intent of these functions. For that reason, even though they serve a very
 similar purpose to the other `_prime_{thing}_caches()` functions, I think
 avoiding the confusion altogether would be better. I'd even avoid adding
 `_caches` the end of the function names. To make the distinction and
 intent even more clear, I would consider renaming these to

 * `wp_load_options()`
 * `wp_load_options_group()`

 While they still serve the purpose of loading and caching a set of
 options, these names would avoid the confusion with internal `prime_`
 functions and would more closely align with other option loading
 functions, `wp_load_alloptions()` and `wp_load_core_site_options()`.

 Given that these are still unreleased functions, I'd prefer the minor
 inconvenience of needing to update the dev note over being stuck with
 inconsistent function names.
