Comment (by kellenmace):

 I'm proposing we change this wording on the single post edit screen from
 "Stick this post to the front page" to "Stick this post to the posts
 page".

 Reasons why:
 1. When users are using a static front page and a different page for their
 posts, the current "Stick this post to the front page" wording is
 inaccurate and misleading.
 2. The "front" and "home" terms can be confusing to end users, as noted by
 others on this ticket. We can avoid that confusion altogether by referring
 to it as the "posts page" instead.
 3. Using "posts page" makes this label consistent with the "— Posts Page"
 label that is applied to that page on the Pages edit.php screen.
