Fun fact, subway systems have been using this concept for decades. Joking aside, "line of death" is easily understood but I never heard the name before. Now that it has a (perfect) name I will never forget it, and that's the importance of giving technology a fitting name. My biggest pet peeve in modern UI is the hamburger menu icon. Three horizontal lines does not, in any way, indicate to the user that menu options lay behind it... and the name was downright awful. We replaced a perfect icon at the time, the "gear" (a gear references an engine, so users looking to change settings understood the analogy). But the hamburger menu tried to remove the "settings" idea and instead encompass navigation, settings, preferences, and operations into one menu icon. In my opinion, it failed, but now is so ubiquitous most people are fine with it.
