Though it seems straightforward to migrate from their incorrect view to the exactly correct view, I have found little success in my polishing attempts so far.
It is for this reason that I am considering the change in terminology. If no one can see anything wrong with "sources" and "sinks", then I will try that, as it seems more consistent with the view that energy enters the circuit via the battery and exits the circuit via the resistors without necessarily needing to specify that it travels in any particular direction ALONG the circuit.
