That was an editorial decision Martin and I took in response to feedback about the previous name (“all”). The concern was that “all” read as overly broad. We proposed “bots,” which is clearly also problematic. We are not attached to this name (but we should probably focus our efforts on the definition of the category before we make another attempt at finding a fitting short name). /Paul
