[ruby-core:55280] [ruby-trunk - Feature #8462] Module.remove_const inconsistant naming

From: "kyledecot (Kyle Decot)" <kyle.decot@...>

List: ruby-core #55280
Issue #8462 has been updated by kyledecot (Kyle Decot).

----------------------------------------
Feature #8462: Module.remove_const inconsistant naming
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8462#change-39678

Author: kyledecot (Kyle Decot)
Status: Rejected
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: core
Target version: 


The Module class in Ruby has several methods for dealing w/ constants:

const_set
const_get
const_defined?
const_missing
remove_const 

The last of which is inconsistently named. I propose that we deprecate this method and create a new one called const_unset (as it's the counterpart to const_set).
