It's just me or Reconstruct History seems a lot more UG than WR?
well, red does get instants and sorceries from the grave to hand usually.... even if blue is better at that.
but the color to get permanents from the grave to hand is green, not white.

I don't remember a single white card that returns stuff from grave to hand.
but alright, yeah, white does return more stuff from the graveyard than I was giving it credit.
I love the love that hybrid is getting. So at what point to we replace using the Boros moniker with Lorehold et al for the enemy pairs now?

I don't think we do "replace" Boros with "Lorehold". That's kind of the point. They are different things, and different enough that going forward if someone says "it's a Boros deck" I know to expect Tajic and a bunch of goblins but if someone says "Lorehold deck" I expect shenanigans and flying spirits

Nah - people won't usually be that specific, especially a couple years after Lorehold is gone. The Guild names are firmly established and are used all the time for any deck in their respective color combo, regardless of whether the deck abides by the exact flavor or mechanics of the Ravnican guild. I fully expect people to say Boros even when playing a Theros heroic deck, a Kaladesh dwarves/vehicles deck, a Winota humans/nonhumans deck, or a Lorehold spirit deck. It's just really convenient to have one name for a color combo; it's a real pain to have to keep multiple names and remember exactly where one drops off and another begins.

That will probably bug the grammar freak in my only slightly less than people calling Noble Hierarch a "Noble". But honestly, the word will either take on a life of its own or it won't and that may be specific to metas and markets but I would be very surprised if there are no cases where Lorehold isn't its own word.
Recursion is strong , but its really weird that they throw all kinds of it in red/white.
Feels so wrong to have this in the colors, but what else to do, if red/white put itself in the spot of burn and lifegain , and crappy equipment themes for like forever.
Might be a pretty major shift for red/white, so it doesnt really work well with all the former themes and mechanics, but at least its not totally crap now.

weird card.
Among other things, this card would be ridiculously strong in Commander if it were GU.
It’s still incredibly strong as-is.
While you can still go RedZone.dec with Boros, Lorehold allows for different options, like a stupid amount of recursion, and tokens.

White has a long history of getting permanents back from GY, especially artifact and enchantment. Sun Titan, Profound Journey, Emeria Shepherd, etc.
