[swift-evolution] [Review] SE-0065 A New Model for Collections and Indices

[Trent Nadeau]

I disagree. According to both http://grammarist.com/usage/indexes-indices/
and http://www.worldwidewords.org/qa/qa-ind2.htm, "indices" is more common
in the English-speaking world (outside of parts of America and Canada) as
well as in technical contexts.
