Input -> Message? #273

The above is quite confusing to take output as input.

I'm not really liking the nomenclature of input and output for VOPRFs.

Have you considered other names?

For input, I think message could work. For output, I think evaluationResult or something, but it might be difficult to not have the name clash with the evaluation function.

This is, at the end of the day, a PRF, which is just a function with inputs and outputs. We've not bikeshed the names of these yet.

This function was dropped from the draft, so this is no longer relevant. Closing.
