Well and good. Now that there is no faintest possibility that anyone will use it
as an official term, I will resume saying "Astral Planes" and "Basic Mundane Plane".

I am also pushing, informally, the term "zigamorph" for the non-character
U+FFFF, based on its use within IBM as a term for EBCDIC FF, also a non-character.
