But what about providing some clues in the help
for those who know what they want but are
unacquainted with the developing system in the
first place? Your approach leaves too high entry
threshold.
Continuing with the Calc functions, I might know
what statistical distributions are but to find
the concrete function I'd still turn to the
search function, to which I'll feed a set of
plain English words which I would expect to be
in description.

Precision doesn't mean it has to be hermetic. People how know, don't

Yes, no and no.
First thing: by "hermetic" I mean "understood by people with some preliminary
knowledge about certain subject".
Precise language does not have to be hermetic, agreed. But being hermetic is
often the most efficient way to precisely communicate what you mean. Moreover,
it is generally safe to use, because it is highly unlikely that someone
without presumed knowledge will even look there.
