Say geometry linestring, not geometry line

Description 

file:///usr/share/doc/postgis-doc/postgis.html
Shouldn't these say linestring, not line?
float8 ST_InterpolatePoint(geometry line, geometry point);
geometry ST_OffsetCurve(geometry line, float signed_distance, text style_parameters='');
Some also say "a_linestring",
geometry ST_LineInterpolatePoint(geometry a_linestring, float8 a_fraction);

In an ideal world yes, but the functions were created with arg names line (not a_linestring), so we have to keep the name unless we want to drop and recreate which is worse than a doc change.
