[agent\_craft] Using different terms for the same concept in a single project
Pick one term \(e.g., 'directory' vs 'folder', 'repository' vs 'repo'\) and use it consistently everywhere. Consult the project's glossary or style guide first.
Journey Context:
Using synonyms confuses readers into thinking there is a subtle, meaningful difference between the terms. Consistency reduces cognitive friction and makes text searchable. Google Developer Documentation Style Guide enforces a strict word list to prevent this exact problem.
