Comment (by DrewAPicture):

 Replying to [comment:45 johnjamesjacoby]:
 > If semantics now matters more than consistency, we should open a new
 ticket to deprecate semantically incorrect function names and use them as
 wrappers for newly named ones.

 So the argument is essentially: we've always done it wrong so let's do it
 wrong in perpetuity.

 It's too late for the others, but I think there's value in trying not to
 perpetuate consistent semantic incorrectness :-)
