I hereby propose that instead of using the heading "See also" at the end of articles, we use the title "Related articles".
As far as I'm concerned, these mean different things. 'See also' can include non-related articles with names that are closely related, for example [[Gilbert O'Sullivan]] in an article on [[Gilbert and Sullivan]].
I think 'See also' is fine; I'm sure most people just treat it as advisory.

Ah, but you see, that's exactly the kind of thing that would be nice to stop (in my opinion). If for example, [[Gilbert O'Sullivan]] is likely to be confused with [[Gilbert and Sullivan]] (and I'm not certain about that, but yes, there are other plausible examples), it should surely be treated as disambiguation, not lumped in with a list of *related* articles. "See also" is too much of a "catch all" title.
