This trips up https://github.com/k-takata/ptycheck to detect the
cygpty which is used in various code bases.
Is there a reason it was renamed?
And while grepping I noticed the old name is still checked for in
other places like
https://cygwin.com/git/?p=newlib-cygwin.git;a=blob;f=winsup/cygwin/tty.cc;h=3c016315cdedb1dcca44cb3f3f96b87fd0b90a97;hb=HEAD#l162
which seems weird.

If these are being renamed should they not now use neutral terminology based on terms such as primary and secondary, and the primary/default repo branches on a term such as main?
