I've been speaking English for a few decades now and I'm not about to
change my understanding or use of the word 'proposal' because of what
you just posted. I think you were looking for a noun such as
'document' or 'dossier' or 'manifesto', something along those lines. I
can propose something to you without even speaking or using words, for
example if I point at the kettle then that can be a proposal to have
tea.

But then if I want to change all the objects from "std::jthread" to
"std::thread", I've to edit all of the lines instead of just one.
