Review Comment:
Thanks you for the review @steveloughran - I have pushed up another commit
implementing this suggestion, I am happy to keep it as is - my initial thoughts
were that the symbols meaning has changed, but the adjustments in the comments
should be sufficient to keep it clear whilst not changing as many files or
requiring the deprecation.
