Per discussion, "location" is a rather vague term that could refer to multiple concepts. "LSN" is an unambiguous term for WAL locations and should be preferred. Some function names, view column names, and function output argument names used "lsn" already, but others used "location", as well as yet other terms such as "wal_position". Since we've already renamed a lot of things in this area from "xlog" to "wal" for v10, we may as well incur a bit more compatibility pain and make these names all consistent.
