I am perfectly with you regarding the description you made.
As there are also currently the "ball joint" connection for f.e. Bionicle and Hero parts we need a strong difference to those.
In my personal experience it would not matter if we call it "Towball" also in the future, as I have learned to know what "Towball" means. But you are right, after looking into the dictionary now I know what "Towball" is
If we can get a name to this connection the benefit would be to have it easier to search for matching parts. But that should be only the second aim.
