The majority of the work we do isnt publishing, removing copyrighted content from an article isnt publishing. When discussing issues on talk people dont see that as publishing but rather discussing.
As someone who has trained a lot of people if the term publish is used it'll actually be a hindrance to getting them to make even the smallest of spelling corrections.
Not every language has a word for publish, there are some 300 Indigenous Australian languages that dont one our biggest challenges in taking the first Australian Indigenous (Noongar[NYS]) language from incubator to live is actually in finding the right words for the buttons and menus

A long-requested change to the "Save" button may finally happen towards

end of March. This is a button that anyone leading a workshop about
editing
is going to talk about, so I wanted to make sure that you didn't get surprised by this change.
I set out may arguments against this change; and the negative impact it will have in the draft namespace/ AFC in particular, in:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_( technical)/Archive_148#Save.2FPublish
AFAICT, the latter point in particular has not been addressed.
The downside is that all of the documentation and help pages is going to
be out
of date.
Not to mention videos.
