If we ever get an append-file-to-file functionality, we'll consider renaming it. Currently the shorter name is more convenient, the docstring is sufficiently clear, as is the prompt, so there's little opportunity for confusion, especially since most commands in Emacs operate "at/around point" or "on the region".
