Is it just me or is this site exactly what several other people in the comments here are proposing as a major part of the solution? I’m not sure, since others are basically saying it’s too hard to do. Cross referencing conditions and diseases along with the scientific and common names for things could indeed be very useful!

That is the goal but it is a very wide and deep problem you won't catch me trivializing but we are chipping away at and seeing success. Our group working on laypersons synonyms because most folks with rare diseases do not know the terminology. https://human-phenotype-ontology.github.io/2016/03/24/layperson.html https://human-phenotype-ontology.github.io/2016/03/24/layper... I should probably be more effusive about all we do as we always seem to be further along than most attempts(and we give it away), but as one of the sausage makers I always worry someone will run into something that is not fixed yet.
