VOTE: Should we suggest a new term at all?

[Kasey Wertheim]

"FOR" A CHANGE

* no definition of what is a "major" case
* current name creates hassles
* current term creates confusion
* illustrates our discipline isn't stagnant
* a new term would better articulate the concept
* existing term is imprecise
* existing term refers to circumstance,
not completeness


"AGAINST" A CHANGE:

* new term would create more confusion
* old term has been around and is used universally
* old term is understandable - it's what people know
* why re-invent the wheel?
* the issue is training, not the existing term
* changing terms would appear that we are
ungrounded in basic foundations
