If, like it or not, a chairman or a chairwoman is obliged to be a Chair, why do we still have salesmen, fishermen, and midwives, never mind the spokesmen and women what lurk around every corner

If, like it or not, a chairman or a chairwoman is obliged to be a Chair, why do we still have salesmen, fishermen, and midwives, never mind the spokesmen and women what lurk around every corner? Why should they not be called Sale, Fish, Mid and Spoke? And while we're about it, it's high time films and comics were retilted - Superperson, Spidercreature and Bat and Robin, for example
