Oh, and BTW, in the jargon of web browsers and HTML there is even a notion of "frame" which is, in a way, akin to an Emacs window: HTML element <frame>. IOW, in a way, the two terms are swapped, to the extent that anyone even uses "frame" outside Emacs. (Element <frame> isn't used much anymore.)
iframes are still used, and will continue to be used for years.The terms are swapped, yes. If they weren't swapped (and just one of them had an "unusual" meaning in Emacs), that would have been less of a problem.
