What do you want them replaced with, if anything?
The reason the Patrol Troop is there was to replace the old mish-mash of separate Sniper/Spotter, Engineer, Mortar roles etc which we always had, which usually ended up being lone rambo's. The idea was to roll them into one Section, which actually exists in rl, and give them leadership, making them accountable to Company command. If players don't respect that, I doubt it will make much difference changing the name? Some people just hate conformity / working as a proper team and will always try to be different, so at least this restricts that 'special' group to a limited number and groups them together.
Perhaps you're suggesting getting rid of the specialist roles altogether? In which case, I can see even more moaning about "why you do this? we love being xyz, you hate us so much!".
I can see where you're coming from, but wonder whether better guidelines that are gently enforced would help, rather than removing the option, as people will only do the same thing but using 'proper' Section positions instead?
If players can not respect that, maybe they should consider playing on a different server.
I think the entire concept of BPT is broken and it should get removed.
