That can't be denied, but I think this confusion is mostly hypothetical.

I sympathize with your aesthetic concerns with collision, but the term
"singleton class" has been in common usage for years and has proven
understandable to new Ruby users crossing the "class << self" chasm
for the first time.

It's a good name that has stood the test of time. Let's officially
adopt what we've already unofficially chosen.
