I think we need to get the original builder to change the name.

I would feel guilty about doing so, I did not invent this thing...

I must say I had a lot of fun doing this, but I hate the term
"adder-subtractor" (no offense to Leo). We should coin a shorter term for
referral to this design and it's variations.

May I suggest "sumdiff"?  It describes the action (it takes the sum and
the difference) and diff is short for differential too.
