I think the real issue here is once more the wording "hidden service" for something which is, in your case, not intended to be hidden. I believe thats why the term "Onion Service" was introduced.
Indeed. I use Onion Service when starting a conversation, but when Hidden Service is already in use, it seems to be less confusing to stick with the terminology being used in the existing thread.
A foolproof solution would be, that a relay complains and refuses to start if a "hidden onion service" is configured on the same instance. But would run without warning with "public onion services". I have no idea if a distinction between "public" and "hidden" onion services is planned or if its just change of wording until now.
I don't think there is a technical difference between and "Onion" vs "Hidden" service, although there is obviously a huge real-world difference.
