Neither is a particularly good name, but if I have to pick, I'd say
we should keep yours.
drop-or-keep may indicate some are dropped while others are kept but
it does not say what the function is for. correct is better in the
sense that the readers can guess that there is something wrong in
"dir" at the point and needs correcting by calling the helper, but
still does not convey what exactly is wrong. How the wrong-ness is
corrected does not have to be explained in the name (i.e. I am
saying that drop-or-keep does not give us much useful information),
but I wish that the name of the helper hinted what kind of wrongness
is there to be corrected to the readers.
