While wanting to use different terms, to avoid confusion and baggage, was a
good idea, their choice was singularly poor.  So far as I can tell EVERY
OO-oriented term carries unwanted meanings - e.g., my tiff last year with PD
over "function".

Having said this, I'm fully aware that nobody will ever be able to prevent
newcomers to a field from trying to equate the new concepts to things
they're familar with.

So let's rename all object-oriented things as either completely new,
artificial words - fomas and granfalloons, for instance, for objects and
methods <wink> - or auto-oriented things.  Then at least there will be no
overlap.
