What is the benefit of the change? I see no benefit over changing a long standing convention that causes no confusion, for one that will, perhaps only initially cause confusion?

_"I would also argue that the tools are not going to get much better at reducing any confusion, so if you really believe that the tools are not good enough now, I don't think they ever will be. (This argument adds weight to your cause, not mine)."_

I agree, I don't think they ever will be.

Sell it to us, what is such a benefit that this change should be adopted? Are there examples elsewhere of people adopting this?
