At least I can't find any decision or voting... That is what I'm trying to
understand.

Sincerely,
I am not qualified in any of these areas. But I see the discussion as
almost irrelevant. Imagine us ridding IT terminology of terms referring
to "dated" subjects such as kernel, batch, shell, etc. It is impossible
for us to work with the abstract without referring to the concrete.
I have seen a bunch of discussion related to "get rid of Floppy Disk
because it is antiquated", but I am unclear on the qualifications of the
people making the decisions. Is this just a random opinion one way or
another, or are the participants somehow qualified or familiar with
human factors,
