If your brain is so inflexible it can’t handle a terminology change you do not belong in tech. Nobody’s asking for the old terms to be instantly expunged, they’ll just die naturally: We used to call DNS servers master/slave, not many use those terms anymore.
I think the key point here is to deprecate old terminology gracefully. Other terms should be preferred for new developments, but existing usage shouldn't be forced to change (especially not if it requires significant refactoring or, worse, interface changes).
Well interface changes are part of any terminology change: Terminology IS, by definition, an interface. It changed in DNS and (many) database systems without the world ending. Our natural aversion to change is not an adequate reason to stomp our feet & refuse like petulant kids
I'm thinking specifically about *programmatic* interfaces, not human ones. As you say, human brains are good at adapting to change. Computers aren't. Changing docs? Sure. Renaming library functions and breaking ABI? Please don't. At least wait until something else breaks ABI.
