Report #47092

[agent\_craft] Using complex jargon when a plain language equivalent exists

Define terms on first use, and prefer common words over obscure technical terms unless the term is a specific API/keyword. Use 'start' instead of 'initialize', 'end' instead of 'terminate'.

Journey Context:
Technical writing aims for the broadest possible comprehension. Using 'utilize' instead of 'use' adds no precision. Plainlanguage.gov guidelines emphasize using simple words.
