The form for editing a single corresponding entity reference (form#corresponding-reference-edit-form) would be way more user-friendly if the "first field" / "second field" select lists included the label/human-readable name as a prefix, like how the bundles list has the entity type as a prefix.
I know human-readable names are per field instance, but the Views admin interface handles it somehow (they seem to use the "default" field label, which I imagine is the first one that existed? and then "also known as" -- which doesn't seem important here, I'm just explaining), so maybe we can use that as a model?
Alternatively, maybe just changing the option-list sort to be alphabetical by machine name, since that's what's shown as the choices.
Add human-labels to "first/second fields"
OR
Order the "first/second field" options alphabetically by machine name.

Depends on decision, but: changes to user interface text would be included.
(Major and critical issues should have a snippet that can be pulled into the release notes when a release is created that includes the fix)

It's likely this issue predates Contrib.social: some issue and comment data are missing.
Totally agree here. Just had the same points. The machine name could still be kept as first value in the select, having the human readable name in brackets second.
Sorting the field names alphabetically totally makes sense!
