Revert Interpolate Domain node name or rename to Transfer Domain
While I understand and agree with the reasoning presented to change the name of the Field on Domain to Interpolate Domain to keep it consistent with other node names, I don't think Interpolate Domain is a good name and is less clear than Field on Domain. On a technical level, Interpolate Domain is an accurate name. However, it makes the assumption that users understand that converting a field from one domain to another domain involves an interpolation of the field prior. I think relying on this assumption can make for poorer user experience when it comes to making the function of nodes clear.
Therefore, I think it would be better to either revert the name back to Field on Domain, which is slightly clearer as it at least indicates the referencing of fields within specific domain, or rename the node again to something clearer. I would propose Transfer Domain or something to the effect as it clearly indicates the intent of changing the domain of the input value. For further clarification, the output hover text could indicate that it interpolates the input field values along connected mesh or curve elements.
