| Seriously? Light trans-black would have been a more appropriate identifier as
there is a noticeable difference, however there is nothing brown about this color
that we are now calling trans-brown.

Just like there is nothing brown about old mud "grey" 
LEGO's official name for the old color is Transparent Brown. I think Rylie's
comparison highlights how brown the old color really is in comparison:

It is absolutely brown. Shine a light behind a part and look at the piece. Nothing
about it is black.

Once you compare them side by side, like the one shown in the link posted by
1001bricks, you can see that old trans brown is very accurate.

I have looked at them side by side, and I agree there is a difference, as previously
noted. I do not agree, however, that brown is an accurate description.
