How could we improve the informal labels to make them more consistent
for you?

The Accounting labels are staying the way they are, because they are
correct, and the purpose of the Accounting Labels option was to allow
people who understand basic accounting terminology to see things in a
familiar way.

No, of course not.  However, the accounting labels are intended to
display things the way accountants want to see them; the informal
labels are intended for people uncomfortable with accounting
terminology.
