There was a problem hiding this comment.
idea: It would have been awesome if somehow we could also generate a #[deprecated] section in the metadata. Then, tools like PJS api and subxt can still support the deprecated method name, but similar to #[deprecated] within rust, emit a warning that they should rename it to something else.
Might be a big engineering mountain to climb initially, but it could potentially ease the development downstream a lot.

I think this still causes major confusion because the word proxy is still used for two different things:
The number of people I've tried to explain the difference between Alice being a proxy and Bob being a different proxy is extremely confusing and I would suggest we call it |
This doesn't make any sense though. What does pure account express? What makes an account created to access via proxy more pure than one accessed via cryptographic key or multisig? |

@shawntabrizi don't you think calling this a proxy is a bad idea? Overloading the word
We use |

I apologize for my earlier comment, I think it's merely the wiki that is still not up to date on the new language. |

Fixes: #7735
Gav noted in the forum that he has been using the term "pure proxy", so this is a simple rename which changes that.

This should have no runtime breaking changes, but APIs like Polkadot JS will probably need to do a rename to make this functionality work again, and also to update the branding of this kind of proxy account.
