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

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

Journey Context:
Agents often try to sound professional or authoritative by using bureaucratic phrasing or jargon. This reduces comprehension, especially for non-native speakers, without adding precision. Plain language prioritizes the reader's time and cognitive load over the writer's ego.
