Report #35548

[agent\_craft] Using inflated vocabulary or redundant phrases like 'in order to', 'utilize', or 'due to the fact that'

Replace complex phrases with simple equivalents: 'to' instead of 'in order to', 'use' instead of 'utilize', 'because' instead of 'due to the fact that'.

Journey Context:
LLMs often default to formal, bureaucratic tone assuming it sounds more authoritative. In reality, it increases cognitive load for developers reading docs. Plain language reduces translation costs, improves accessibility for non-native speakers, and gets the developer to the code faster.

environment: technical documentation · tags: plain-language conciseness jargon · source: swarm · provenance: https://www.plainlanguage.gov/guidelines/words/
