Personally I don't mind remote executor.  We need to keep in mind that this
is not just naming the executor but the provider and all the other related
objects.

E.g. in #41729 you have these objects

    from airflow.providers.remote.models.remote_job import RemoteJob
>     from airflow.providers.remote.models.remote_logs import RemoteLogs
>     from airflow.providers.remote.models.remote_worker import RemoteWorker


I sorta feel the reverse that distributed is better way to describe in docs
and remote is maybe better for this executor-worker system.

Distributed is a mode of execution that would apply to both remote executor
and celery and k8s executor and ecs.  Remote tells you something specific
about the way it is distributed.  E.g. it's in a far off corner of your
corporate vpn :)

I also don't feel super persuaded by the notion that remote is too broadly
used and understood by the community.  I personally did not know that our
distributed executor systems were described this way in the docs until it
was brought to the attention of the list.
