I'm sure that no matter what happens in the Arrowverse (that could well go even further than Vixen and Legends), every change will be dealt with accordingly :)

Now, returning to the thread... The name "Berlantiverse" does make some sense, but I just don't see it working on a conversation. "So, they're doing this new show on the Berlantiverse..." I don't know, it isn't catchy like Arrowverse. And that's another factor to consider. Exactly! It's not that one is giving preferential treatment to Arrow but given the cirumstances, Arrowverse is what the writer have called it a few times, what most fans call it and as @Playsonic2 says... It flows better. Furthermore, while the other alternatives are good, they bring about with them way too many confusions. For example, Berlantiverse implies only those shows produced by Greg Berlanti are part of it(thus excluding Gotham, Constantine and Titans if at some point DC wanted to merge all those shows into one TV universe). Then there's the CWDC idea which brings about the problem that it also implies that Smallville is part of this universe. Arrowverse is simple, catchy and less confusing.
