Link type "Affected by Defect"

Hi Team,

One end of the relationship link is "Affects Plan Item" which, for instance, is used starting with a risk affecting a plan item (feature/story/etc.). 
Looking from the linked affected plan item, the link shows "Affected by Defect" which is confusing as it is affected by a risk.
Analog to other link type "Contributes To"/"Tracks", "Blocks"/"Depends On", etc. do not mention/limit the relationship link to a specific work item.

Outcome expected:
Link is shown as "Affected by" instead of "Affected by Defect"

Please consider to change in the display name.

Thank You

    The EWM Ideas Review board looked at this request and decided to keep it on the Backlog as an uncommitted candidate for a future release.
