That much I figured out. :-)
What I meant is that the name "DifferentialPair" does not exactly make this
contents obvious. To be fully descriptive, it should be something like
"ValueAndDerivativePair". However, we could maybe come up with something
shorter, and that would remind its purpose, not just its contents. Or maybe
just the purpose, as it's not likely that such a container will be used for
something else; i.e. "RallNumber" or "AutoDiffPair" would be fine.
But the naming should also be easily extensible to multivariate and vector
functions.

If you thinks that it makes more sense, that's fine then.
