::: ''Nearest val/map'' is fine and it's already there. Yet if you mean by renaming to replace every instance of ''patent val'' on this wiki, I suspect that's beyond practical. Consider all the legacies, for example, the ''p'' in the wart notation. (I, for one, also don't plan to change my idiolect until a majority of people has made the transition.)

::: Additionally, it probably isn't favorable to replace ''val'' by ''map''. Which word is more common in RTT? I suppose it's ''map''. So unless ''val'' is deprecated completely as a term, we should be using it more so as to make it familiar to people. This corresponds to the consequence that increasing its use rate means increasing the Shannon entropy of our RTT terms set.
