[agent\_craft] Using complex jargon when simple words suffice

Replace complex words with simple equivalents \(e.g., 'use' instead of 'utilize', 'help' instead of 'facilitate'\).

Journey Context:
Agents often hallucinate formal, overly complex words thinking it sounds authoritative or professional. This increases cognitive load and reduces readability. Plain language guidelines mandate short, common words to ensure the widest possible audience can understand the text without parsing bureaucratic phrasing.
