By this designation, we could call a brake a clutch and get away with it because it's all documented. The problem is not with the documentation. It's with the name.
That's a nice pat answer, but the problem is that for every value of "name" we propose, somebody comes forward and says "But that confuses me." We can't call it BETA, we can't call it STABLE, we can't call it RC, we can't call it PRERELEASE, because each and every one of those have had push-back from people who said it would conflict with previous definitions they hold dear. Given that, chances are excellent that any other halfway logical names we come up with will suffer from the same problem.
Just because the problem is difficult to solve does not mean it can not be or should not be solved.
