Yep, I'm aware of the backstory, and the additional planned keywords. I'm reacting mostly to the continued usage of the term for this release without those features, because those being introduced to the term for the first time, won't understand there's supposed to be a difference (and thus not understand the main arguments in favor of pattern matching).
So, what we're seeing here is not necessarily the final stage. It's what we get in this release of the language, but more will likely follow.
