Oh, it's very useful to have consistent terminology. And if a document needs to use new terms, they should definitely be defined before use. I just don't want to encourage people to make up new terms (or more likely, whole new paradigms with their own lexicons) when existing ones will do. I'm reminded of recent work in NEA, but they're not the only ones. > I agree. Which is why a Terms and Definitions section is darn useful as is > an overall Term Bank.
