Like Mark I'm opposed to this change. It requires little work in CPython itself, but numbers.Integral has now been a part of the language for many years and the name is used in numerous third-party projects. Forcing all of them to change doesn't seem particularly valuable. "Integer" is probably a better name in a vacuum, but "Integral" isn't actively misleading.
