Programming is far to broad to assume everyone knows every word. I'm a recent grad ~1yr working as a web developer on a ms stack so what I use every day may be completely different from what he uses every day. Therefore I am going to know a completely different set of terms then him. I never heard of K and T while in college. Why? Probably because its not a major enough term. There is hardly enough time to learn all the lingo especially when it takes a whole 10 lines to write these combinators. I would have just wrote those ten lines and not cared what its called.
