 Your new statements are incorrect; birthtime refers to when the inode
 was allocated, not when the file was created.  The implications of
 using any term other than the self-descriptive "birth time" really are
 unclear (for instance, when is a file restored from backup created?) and
 so we're really better off just using the term "birth time".
