I expect that will show up in many proposals in the future because people
will use what worked already. Coming up with completely new language and
areas means that you are having to roll the dice and worry about playing
word-chef each time. I think the best way to clarify this in product
proposals will be better idea from the Board etc on what they want and what
they don't want. [Which you are doing on your part, but is that a Board
view or just your own... that needs to be clarified so that future product
proposals know what they are trying to build.]
