 Description   

It's unclear why we need two server commands for this (except now for backward compatibility; I'm not proposing breaking that).

Offhand, unless there's important that Initiate does that Reconfig doesn't do, as single might as well do whatever Initiate does if the existing nodes don't have a replica set configuration.

(I admit this is just syntax, but it's just another detail you have to keep in mind, have to teach people, and can get wrong.)

Clarity and precision are good.
