The point of this blog post was to get people to think about it. The word block, and the concept of a block, is very useful which is why its used everywhere. I will certainly keep using it.
But, extreme care needs to be taken when software is being designed and we need to be very precise about the language we use. A "Block" structure, which contains the block header and all of the transactions, is probably a really bad idea with Bitcoin SV. Don't do it unless you are absolutely sure of what you are doing.
