Universal name would be harder. Augmented name would
sound like an Englebartism. Enhanced name sounds like a
stereo processor. None of these is more or less indicative
of what it does AFAICT than what is there.
IMO, they are the same topic: churning to get it perfect
for any case real or imagined over keeping it stable
to allow products to ship. If this were a catastrophe
making quality defect, I might think it important.
I guess I should backtrack and see if the question
is more one of explanation over inventing a new
name for the spec or adding to the ever expanding
acronymy given an overburdened technology but it's
Friday and I have to go mow the lawn before the
rain comes back. The neighbors are eyeing me. :-)

It's not a problem until you have to explain the two at the same time to
somebody.

I think that's a different topic, no?
