Why aren’t crypto wallets called keychains instead?

It makes more sense to call them keychains as they arent really wallets. You store money in a wallet, you dont store crypto in your crypto wallet. Crypto wallets basically are keychains as they literally hold your private KEYS and gives you acxes to your assets on the blockchain. Lots of new people are confused wether or not your crypto is stored in your wallet because of the naming. Naming it crypto keychain would eliminate that confusion. Is it still too late to change the naming? Id love to hear opinions!
