The reason to *keep* them is compatibility. The reason they are like
that to start with is because that is the naming pattern used in the
system catalogs: 3 letters indicating the catalog, plus additional
letters or words. It is useful to use the same name in views such as
pg_stat_replication, so you can easily join different views and catalogs.
