1.  It's not a type.

2.  This isn't an exercise in semantics.

The document describes what it is targeting in pretty plain language.  The added 
clarification that Pete has suggested ought to make the language even more plain.

In any event, I've no idea what concern it is that you have.

Perhaps you can state, in simple terms, exactly what problem passage of this 
document causes or what benefit exists in retaining the convention of 
distinguishing X- prefixes, and the like?
