As thread starter, I should probably write something...
No, I do not mind that initial concern weathered down. I would probably delete everything on top to the point where Andrew replied on topic of "UT Picker".

It was an interesting, and in some points tense discussion.
We can argue till we turn blue on what things should be "called", but in reality it makes little or no difference. I think the strongest argument JJJ made which was concise and precise and which I will side with him was:

"It is always the responsibility of the designer to observe how users use (or do not use) something and adjust for that. Building an awesome thing that most people don't know how to or want to use is a design fail."

Can it be changed for the better? Sure it can.

P.S. Charlie, very nice track btw.
