I think you're confusing the formats here. The bspec uses both terms
"TileF" and "Tile4" for the same format in different places. There's a
completely different format that's referred to as both "TileS" and
"Tile64" in the bspec that we don't use at the moment. So tile64
wouldn't be a correct rename, but tile4 could be.
In general Tile4 is much more common in the bspec than TileF is (TileF
terminology is mostly found in the media sections). And bspec 44917 is
the most authoritative bspec page on the subject, and it refers to it as
Tile4, so I agree that switching over "Tile4" would probably be a good
move.

Recognizing TileF/Tile4 separately from TileY is important to code
outside of display as well. There are blitter instructions that require
different settings for TileY vs Tile4/F so if we drop the tracking of
this as a unique tiling type, it will break the blitting/copying and
some of the upcoming local memory support for Xe_HP-based platforms.
