Thanks to the wonderful ambiguity of natural languages, it's 
quite likely that a number of people will think splat is a verb 
because it's spelled identically to the noun. Those people would 
expect it to splat things, such as arrays etc. Which it doesn't, 
it's actually functions closer to identity than splat.

Also newcomers looking for something which can handle undefined 
heterogeneous things, are not likely to search the documentation 
for Splat. Tuple is far likelier to be found.
