We are not dealing with a language - that would be another campaign such as 
getting rid of the stupid misuse of "issue" or "issues" for "problem". We are 
dealing with explaining technical matters where there is an opportunity for 
ambiguity if we don't stick to universally understood, accepted and mandated 
expressions.
