You have to admit both pull and fetch have been contaminated
with loaded meanings from different backgrounds. I was talking
about killing the source of confusion in the longer term by
removing fetch/pull/push, so we are still on the same page.

How was/is fetch contaminated?

I think "fetch" is sane.  Its only problem is a missing symetrical 
counterpart verb, like "get" and "put".
