My concern about that is that we're teaching people who start learning
programming with our sources to do non-standard stuff.

I don't see anyone in this thread saying that we should go back and
change things that we already have. But if we're going to implement a
new thing, giving it the standard name (however ugly, and I agree that
it's ugly) is almost certainly the right way to go.
