Whatever makes you feel good. :-)

I've used them interchangably, too. The fact still remains that editors do not, if they don't want to, have to look at suggested sites. I'm one of those that choose not to, so the "backlog" is of no concern to me. But, it only makes sense that it would be of concern to people who are trying to get listed (and before you say anything, I'm only talking about the people who are trying to get listed and complain about how long it takes).
