I just have one thing to add to the discussion, which is this:

Yes, people actually read and interpret our documentation :) So discussions like this are probably a good thing in terms of getting the best descriptions in there, but if we use a specific technical term not quite right then we will be found out.

(A few of us core devs chatted with Al afterwards and there's no bad blood, so don't worry about that.)

Cheers, Steve
