The editorial change referred to in the resolution of issue 2495 updated the terminology used to describe the return statement to allow for the fact that the operand could be a braced-init-list instead of an expression. A similar problem exists describing the result of a function call in 7.6.1.3 [expr.call] paragraph 9:

The result of a function call is the result of the possibly-converted operand of the return statement (8.7.4 [stmt.return]) that transferred control out of the called function

It's incorrect to refer to “converting” the operand when it is a braced-init-list.
