Well, we are not in Alice in Wonderland and we cannot really decide
what a word "is".

"Let me open this bottle of beer!"

There is no diluted commercial interest here :)

More seriously, I'm always amazed at how people follow RMS so strictly
(blindly?) on words that need to be avoided, as if they have not read
"1984".
