That would still be renaming them. Maybe we could add new aliases, but we can't
remove the old ones, so we'd end up with two names, which we generally try and
avoid.

But even if the names were perfectly fine, we should be using regex rather than
the ad-hoc patterns that are currently being used. And maybe if we added those,
we could consider deprecating the old ones - but not simply for renaming
purposes.
