Why?

It is a branch, regardless of which insn is used on which arch - it is
either active and you *branch* to that code or *inactive* and you don't.
So now it is actually what it should've been from the beginning...

I realize simplifying the terminology around those jump labels/static
branches things comes kinda unnatural now.
