Multiclass classification Score vs Scores column #2542

This is silly, but probably worth small discussion.
All our Multiclass samples using following example:

public class MulticlassClassificationExample

which has:

// The probabilities of being "AA", "BB", "CC", and "DD".
public float[] Scores;

There is small problem with that. All our multiclass learners produce column Score, not Scores, so we just copy column from Score to Scores, or reassign them in pigsty.
Which doesn't look like good idea for me, more like workaround.

Question is following: do we prefer to have consistency and call score column everywhere as Score column, or we want to be more user friendly and for multiclass use Scores (basically introduce (DefaultColumnNames.MulticlassScore)

In we want consistency we better rename Scores in MulticlassClassificationExample to Score. If we want be more user friendly, we need to go through lot of code, and replace for all multiclass cases Score to Scores.
