I know it’s easier to give advice and hindsight is 20/20, but IMO sticking with technical terms in APIs has an added benefit of preventing API from “spilling into” the end GUI (at least without a proper translation layer), in case someone later decides to cut some corners by exposing it as is to the user.
Here in particular, since “trash” is not just a technically imprecise word but also a highly idiomatic one (to North America in particular).
