There was nothing *wrong* with the old wording, but the new wording is
clearer?  Do you disagree it is clearer?  I don't think it makes sense
to keep less-clear wording just to match press release translations.

It is not like we are changing the wording 24 hours before final
release.  There will perhaps be other adjustments that might be needed
for the press release.  Also, the non-English press release isn't going
to match the English release notes word-for-word anyway (they aren't in
English) so is the new naming that big an issue?

I suggest you update the English press release and ask as many
translators who want to update theirs.
