> The Flink Glossary page contains imprecise and ambiguous definitions, and has 
> gaps for core terms like Checkpoint, Watermark, or Parallelism.
> It also focuses on DataStream API only.
> 1. _JobGraph_ documented as a synonym for _Logical Graph_, collapsing a real 
> stage out of Flink's translation pipeline. Flink actually does _StreamGraph_ 
> --> _JobGraph_ --> _ExecutionGraph_.
> 2. _Task_ and _Sub-Task_ are conflated
> 3. Core terms missing: _Checkpoint_, _Savepoint_, _Watermark_, _Parallelism_, 
> _Channel_, _Source Split_.
> 4. Three dead cross links to _Function_ and _Record_.
> 5. No Table API / SQL coverage. The glossary was DataStream-only; a SQL user 
> had no entry point. 
> 6. _Partition_ conflates three things: logical partitioning, physical 
> partitioning, and external-system partitions (Kafka topic partitions).
> 7. Capitalization of defined terms is inconsistent
> 8. Entries are not in alphabetical order.
