The thing about magical refactoring though is that it often isn't a good idea. You usually don't just change the name of something, but you change it conceptually. If you just let the ide go and change the name everywhere, you create bugs because you never actually went and made sure the old code was updated for the new concept, rather than just the name.

That's not really true.
