I think the LessWrong habit of making up local jargon for existing well-understood things is a bad idea and shouldn't be encouraged. Using gratuitously different local jargon cuts people off from existing bodies of knowledge without them knowing it.
BTW, everyone feel free to call me out for using jargon whenever you think the precision isn't worth the obscurity. I try not to do that but I often forget.
