Doubleplusgood news!
Seriously though, alight and terminates are not hard words to understand - particularly when given context and used in repeated announcements. It doesn't reflect well on our literacy levels if these words are now considered too difficult for the general population.
I wonder if it's to make things easier for people where English is not their first language.

Almost certainly.
