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".
"throw" ?
But I think "I'll just 'throw' this set of patches at you" is a lot
harshers sounding than "I'll just 'push' this set of patches at you".
