I hadn't thought about it until this came up, but yes, we have various 
terms, not just in the prose but in the markup as well. Can't help the 
markup, and be backwards compatible but we can fix the prose.

I did a quick run on the text and I suspect that to be the case. Would 
have to actually compare all of them to say for sure but I think it 
would make a reasonable starting assumption and the basis for choosing 
one expression over another. If we run into one that is truly different, 
then it could simply remain the same.

Hope you are looking forward to a great weekend!
