I disagree. RFCs are written with words and discussions at the IETF or
elsewhere use words. Agreeing on the "right" words is important. Words
are not innocent. (Refusing to call .onion names "domain names" was
also a way to refuse the registration of .onion.)

To quote Camus <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Camus>, "Naming
things badly adds to the misfortune of the world"
