Report #17805

[agent\_craft] Using different terms for the same concept interchangeably \(e.g., 'app', 'application', 'program'\)

Select one term and use it exclusively throughout the document or project. Maintain a project glossary if necessary.

Journey Context:
While synonyms add variety in creative writing, they cause confusion in technical writing. A user might assume 'app' and 'application' refer to different entities with different behaviors. Consistent terminology reduces cognitive load and prevents ambiguity.
