Comment(by nacin):

 Replying to [comment:9 ramiy]:
 > nacin, we can rename term_description() as well.
 I wasn't convinced it was worth it because that's three functions to
 rename, simply for get_* consistency. Surely we have other functions that
 don't start with "get_", especially those that also don't start with
 "the_", that return a value. I suppose this is considered a template tag,
 so I understand why we should probably do it here.
