While you raise a good point -- that it's true that customers don't need to know what method is being used --, the text you're talking about is not something that customers will ever see ... you're referring to Admin-side text.
And, technically, all the data that you see by following those PayPal IPN links ... is specifically related to the IPN notifications sent by PayPal to your store whenever any PayPal transaction is completed. So, technically those *are* all IPN details. Thus the use of "IPN" is actually correct.
If you're finding it confusing, as marcelo63 and others have mentioned, you're certainly free to change it to talk about PayPal Transaction History or something else instead.
Hope that clarifies the issue!
