Essentially yes, they are removing any SRD components due to the licensing debacle created by WOTC earlier in the year. Then there’s some other changes like ability scores being removed and then just using the modifiers, which makes sense tbh

… why the name/language changes? To distance from D&D and align with ORC instead?

Yup, exactly.
In some cases they’re changing the terminology purely to avoid using the OGL and move towards ORC. In some other cases it seems to be more as though they’re using the opportunity of all these changes happening to make a change away from terminology they thought was unclear or not as good as they’d like.
