Comment (by wonderboymusic):

 Per chat with Nacin - gonna work on separate cache buckets for each type
 and will resurrect {{{get_term_by()}}} which can leverage them. Also,
 {{{get_term()}}} would have a hard time distinguishing between id, name,
 and slug for the category named, slugged, term_id'd "1" etc
