I had to run out the door and hit enter too early… :P
On the larger question, I think whatever seems most natural
should be used. UFCS can make things read very confusing. But I
don't think this is an example of that.
I think "send" is really only the right term to use for a
mediating third object: network-connection, mail-agent etc… E.g.:
postoffice.send(letter,person)
system.send(message,receiver)
vs
flyingcarpet.send_to(location)
person.receive_letter(mailbox)
mailbox.receive_letters_from(postman)
