I regret very much that I didn't notice this earlier... I.e., I noticed this in D76077 and wrote that I am relatively unhappy about this (I think I mentioned this on another ticket too).
Because like @arsenm , I would expect the IR type name to be bfloat16.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I don't see a big discussion about this in D78190. I only see 1 or 2 comments about `BFloat` vs `Bfloat`.
