why?

rename arch name "noarch" to "all"

benefits?

rename arch name "x86_64" to "amd64"

oh no - i remember a person working many years as a sysadmin downloaded the i686 CentOS image while i said "the 64bit iso please" because it was labeled with AMD64 and he thought "hmm we have Intel"

rename package name "kernel-PAE" to "kernel"

that are different packages so you can't rename it without losing one

and even rename package name "kernel" to "linux"

and touch a lot of other packages, customized enduser metapackages for a questionable benefit?
