Report #11912

[agent\_craft] Using different words for the same UI element or API concept throughout a document

Pick one term and use it consistently. Create a project terminology dictionary and enforce it. Do not use synonyms just to avoid repetition.

Journey Context:
Agents naturally vary vocabulary to avoid sounding repetitive, a habit from creative writing. In technical docs, synonyms imply distinct concepts. If you call it a 'button' in step 1 and an 'icon' in step 2, the user thinks they are different things. Consistency trumps variety.
