If you are prompted for the date, you can give a point ('.') and
the current date is shown.
I think this is "short enough".

Indeed, short enough. Thank you.
I guess I should have found it by myself, but skim reading through
8.2.1 gave me the feeling that it was only devoted to specific
formats.
Also, when searching through the manual for time-stamp, I was a victim
of the time-stamp/timestamp curse :-)

Manual overwhelmingly uses timestamp, except several "time-spamped",
which appear to be just right.
Not so much for function and variable names. Some (few) use time-stamp
with dash.
Would you be interested to create a patch?
We can simply provide "timestamp" aliases to "time-stamp" functions and
variables and then mention the aliases in the manual.

I wish I could, but it is beyond my ability: I am not an (e)lisp
programmer.

It is not too hard. Just a question of sprinkling defalias and
defvaralias near the functions with "time-stamp" in name.
lisp/org.el has plenty of examples.
Then, doc/org-manual.org is just an Org file where you can add extra
#+findex: entries with "timestamp" function name references.
We have the details about creating patches in
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#first-patch
