Report #2137

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

Replace complex words with plain language alternatives \(e.g., use 'use' instead of 'utilize', 'help' instead of 'facilitate', 'about' instead of 'approximately'\).

Journey Context:
Technical writing is already dense; adding multi-syllabic jargon increases cognitive friction without adding precision. The goal is comprehension, not sounding smart. Plain language ensures non-native speakers and exhausted developers can parse the meaning instantly.
