I guess that this tag should usually trigger another consequence like the following.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst?id=b0c3ba31be3e45a130e13b278cf3b90f69bda6f6#n548

I am unsure if such aspects will matter after Tejun Heo responded with the information

I am curious how our imaginations and preferences will evolve further
also for such wording selections.
