Well, then undo that change, please?

It doesn't make sense to me. Note that you only  change  the  default

most probably still use the old names anyway, even if they update  to
a recent version of U-Boot...

No, definitely not.

The explanation requiring the fewest assumptions is the  most  likely
to be correct.                                    -- William of Occam
