Huh, lemme do it.
Schelling fence → bright-line rule
Semantic stopsign → thought-terminating cliché
Anti-inductiveness → reverse Tinkerbell effect
"0 and 1 are not probabilities" → Cromwell's rule
Tapping out → agreeing to disagree (which sometimes confuses LWers when they take the latter literally (see last paragraph of linked comment))
ETA (edited to add) → PS (post scriptum)
That's off the top of my head, but I think I've seen more.
Instrumental/terminal = hypothetical/categorical
rationalist taboo = unpacking.
Instrumental and terminal are pretty common terms. I've seen them in philosophy and business classes.
