It's an interesting example of how discredited programming methods get renamed to make them acceptable again.
- Self-modifying code? Obviously bad and never allowed, at all, ever.
- Self-installable plugins? Too useful to get rid of.
- Goto? The despised root of all programming evil. Never do this!
- Try/catch? Too useful to get rid of.
But renaming them, instead of teaching them as what they are, downplays their risks.
