It's not rule, it will be very confusing when rule listing is implemented.

I want to avoid START and END *alone*, to avoid keyword usage.

If START_TIMESTAMP and END_TIMESTAMP is better, no problem with me.

If something else (FROM_MOMENT, TO_MOMENT; START_MOMENT, END_MOMENT), no
problem either.

Just note there is the input parameters names too, currently
FROM_TIMESTAMP, TO_TIMESTAMP, which must be thought together.
