I'm fine with that, then.

If I had a time machine, I would have used "pack data" (or "pack
stream") vs "pack file" (or ".pack file") to differentiatee (as the
pack-protocol is not about transferring any "file", but just carries
"pack data"), but that is a rename with more cost than warranted for
a minuscule gain at this point.
