Somewhat interestingly, there is a great deal of inconsistency in naming in the type design world — both in marketing features like this, but also down to terminology for specific parts of letters. I agree that it would be very useful, but for whatever reason it never seems forthcoming. My assumption has always been that type design is a fairly distributed discipline (at least amongst latin-alphabet-using countries), but remains niche, so there’s more or less only regional terminology without much consistency. (This is purely observational, so take from this what you will)
