I get that this renaming is an over-generalization, and more changes in the future may be required should different CFI schemes arise, so I guess you're suggesting maybe we should not do the renaming.

But then you propose that we make the renaming now. (??)
I'm quite confused by the conflict of these two paragraphs. Can you talk more about your view?
