Re: [whatwg/fetch] Unclear intent in steps 29, 34.3, and 36 of the Request constructor (#358)

Ah, yep, I did not understand that "`Headers` object" and "r's request's header list" always have the same underlying headers list contents. Thanks, Josh and Anne, for clarifying.

I guess there is a sentence before the section I linked above that says:
> A Request object also has an associated Headers object which is itself associated with request's header list.

In this case the word "associated" means "the same object's (or piece-of-the-object's) contents referenced in two places". Is this true for all 85 instances of the word "associated" in the document?. Maybe an explicit definition of "associated" would be helpful (at least for me, who is newer to reading specs). I also like @jdm's idea for adding consistency.
