That's too much to worry for. If we had to bother with this, there are more to bother with. For example, Tortuga Governor's daughter has hundreds of marriages active. Some things have to be adjusted for a game to work.
If this really bothers you, think it like a Beautiful Girl of Tortuga. This is an rpg game too, after all.
Renaming the feature could be an option if we wanted a universal fix for the two above listed issues but it would break down the simplicity for the newcomer.
So, simplicity for newcomer >>>>> minor inconvenience.
