My general take has been that we should probably avoid these terms moving forward, but that the technical cost of going through nearly a century’s worth of technical stack and fixing every last reference is probably a pretty technically risky operation.

Technically risky yes but worth it. Inconsistencies in naming make code horrible to work with.
