Why don’t we permanently retire the term “balun” and use either “choke” or "impedance
transformer” in its place?

No its not... it's a choke that many mistakenly call a Bal(anced)Un(balanced).
Does it act somewhat like a Balun... yes for the case of a 1:1 but a true Balun
can be in other ratios.

A common-mode choke IS a balun.

We're talking about a common mode choke, not a balun/transformer.

Actually that's not true. A lot of baluns are wound with balanced
