I know that there's whole other thread on naming.
I believe everybody has reviewed this having keystone's "endpoint" in mind
and understanding that those are different terms where keystone endpoints
should have been named 'service_endpoints' or something.
There's no UX or technical reasons to not to reuse terms used in different
projects and in different domains.

So I don't think it's fair to blame reviewers here.

Thanks,
