2 is an interesting strategy. But that ‘up goer five’ term is an example of what I’m referring to.
If by happenstance the ‘xkcd’ link failed for whatever reason, the median passing reader will likely never bother to puzzle out the meaning, at least not without further elaboration.
I’ll repeat Raemon’s question.
It doesn’t seem like he formed a question? In fact it appears as if he specifically refrained from doing so, even after I pointed it out.
What’s the term you think is commonly accepted to describe something I’m talking about with different words?
“up goer five” instead of “simplification”, “keeping things simple”, etc...
For your prior comment, I don’t know what your describing to think of equivalents, hence why I was asking. Asking me doesn’t seem to make sense?
Raemon’s question was ‘which terms did you not understand and which terms are you advocating replacing them with?’ As far as I can see, you did not share that information anywhere in the comment chain (except with the up goer five example, which already included a linked explanation), so it’s not really possible for interlocutors to explain or replace whichever terms confused you.

You would be the only who could know for certain.
