If you really think this is a big deal we do have the option to rate the Apple page.  It is currently rated 4 stars with 5254 responses.  Perhaps collectively we could lower the rating.  I have already expressed my vote.

I honestly do recall the 'disc' nomenclature being attributed to CD-type media.  I always felt wrong with HP calling it DISC in  the configuration.

Been involved in IT since 1976. We used the terms Disc and Disk interchangeably as long as I have been around and that’s well before cd's and dvd's were around. I guess Apple now makes the rules?

Umm,  I beg to differ.
