Thx!

It's a good question, for that we actually use CTID if we're in a context
were we definitively know that it's a CT. For the common case where we
talk about both we most often keep using VMID for that term, mostly
because nobody had a better idea, and it _is_ a shared ID space, so using
different terms for that might also have its disadvantages.
