Okay. This is about change from one existing top-level type to another, 
and about tweaking the minor type name with a suffix. Out of the context 
of the discussion, I thought that you were speaking about new top-level 
types when you wrote "I have not infrequently pushed back on top-level 
type choices", but now I see that that's not a necessary interpretation.
