It's a bit worse: the actual name is "ptr", the function docstrings say "addr", and the documentation (https://docs.python.org/3.9/library/ctypes.html#ctypes.string_at) has "address". I'd favor updating them all to say "ptr", because changing the name of the runtime parameter would risk breaking users' code.
