Report #72602
[agent\_craft] Using inflated words like 'utilize', 'in order to', or 'implement' \(when meaning 'do'\)
Replace with simple, direct equivalents: 'use', 'to', 'do'.
Journey Context:
Agents often default to formal, inflated language to sound authoritative or professional. This increases cognitive load and violates plain language principles. Strunk & White explicitly warns against using a long word where a short one will do.
