The term is very well-established in mathematics (for e.g. matrices and transformations) that is the precisely correct term for this, and it is already widely used in CS. Inventing a new word would not be helpful in the long run.
What do you mean by 'nicer' word? I really honestly don't get it.
I mean if it were some consumer property, like say the size of a hard drive or such, then yeah makes some sense, for a term used in strictly in technical circles to describe a precise technical property, I don't understand what 'nicer' means.
