I think they’ve both stuck around at Stripe for so long because there’s something useful communicated by the (correct) choice, and having different implementations with different trade offs based on the use case. OTOH, every single user of the system has to understand the differences in order to consume them correctly, and even the search/browse is (was?) separate, iirc. I suspect a big improvement would just be to unify the web administrative interface: clearly indicate which is which, but allow common operations without needing to know ahead of time whether something is a flag or a gate.
