If we do that, the stubs will overwrite the originals when you upgrade
Runtime (but not Manual).  That would be a major headache for everyone.

I don't think this is confusing new users, BTW... it's confusing old

If you find specific instances of those, open a problem ticket and I'll
try to resolve them.
