Though arguably BT and TalkTalk's YouView is already the simplification you talk of - one EPG with streamed channels sitting alongside DTT and both alongside paid and free catch-up and VOD.
And with circa 3m customers between them it's clear the platform has some merits.

I do think Old Boy should be given a little, just a little, bit of slack if he gets confused by different terminology to discuss what is an increasingly ever complicated subject.

I have to say, I think he deliberately jumps between the terms knowing that he's using them wrong, in order to distance himself from his original and now abandoned claims.
