This is one of the few areas where they are the same although I never heard of a bellcrank being called an idler!
Good point. Maybe back in the olden days they needed a catchall and easy to spell and remember "one fits all" name for any of the passive items that are present but mostly along for the ride. Packard has several other idlers, each of which does something important to help another part but do not do anything on their own so most of the time they are idle.
