I would say that 'reset' is better. The issue I have with 'restart' is
simple: it seems related to the 'start' command which does something
totally different.

Even semantically 'reset' seems more clear (to set anew). Maybe 'reinit'
would be even better?

That's a command for pretty advanced users. Even if the name isn't
descriptive enough it isn't a big deal... but I think avoiding the
confusion with 'start' is important for basic users.
