But "string" comes much closer to having a narrow definition
in Perl than "list" does so this would make the problem
worse. If I said that tr/a-z/A-Z/ replaced the characters
in the first string with the cooresponding characters from
the second string, then, to me, I'd be saying that "b" is
not changed to "B" since "b" does not appear in the string
"a-z".

I see your point. For me tr can be taking a short-hand for strings, for convinence. Admittedly I'm not familiar with the official naming given in the official parsing rules.
