It's not "only to reword", it's to keep consistency.
We have now 2 packages Koha::Borrowers and Koha::Patrons, which represent the
same thing. To make things clear, it's important to have only 1 word to
represent the same entity. A new dev will know where (s)he should add new code
patron-related.
I am pretty sure that the use of the "patron" term has been voted years ago for
the interface.
