I'm not really concerned about this either. As long we maintain the
functionality, we're not really dumbing down anything.

I'd say:
taxonomy module -> classification module
I am fine with that.
vocabulary -> category group
Two words would be confusing, especially if category is used for term.
How about just "category" here.
term -> category or tag
We can keep it as a term. The issue is the "vocab", not so much "term". Tag is more specific to free tagging, and may be overloading the term.
