 two questions:

 go back here and do something actionable and is that something that is
 best to have in the code rather than in tickets?

 If i'd create a ticket with a tech-debt (i guess i wrote a typo there)
 changes, i don't know if it'll ever be solved and then in the ticket would
 need to point to all the parts of the code where i detected it while
 working on something else.

 > 2. The constant renaming seems OK to me, but it seems complicated to
 maintain all these lists and how they are subsets/supersets of each other?

 agree, do you have a suggestion on how to change that without having to
 increase minor version because changing API?
