Move to Trash -> Delete

The "Move to Trash" command must be causing the folks at Google a lot of consternation. Back in October of last year, they were moving it around on the Gmail dropdown command list. Causing me confusion.

This week, they changed the name of the command from "Move to Trash" to "Delete." Causing more confusion and prompting this conversation:

(Actual transcript.)

Dave: Hey did you notice— (I interrupted. I interrupt a lot.)

Tara: Move to trash, right?!

Dave: Yeah!

Tara: WTF?

Dave: WTF.

Profound, eh? We are easily confused people.

Now if only they'd put it right next to that Archive button, I'd be one happy camper.
