The distinction between different domain terminologies is prescient for software development.

For example my company at large refers to Booleans (meaning search expressions that are vaguely Boolean in nature in our sense, that job boards enable for CV searching).
Ultimately mutual understanding trumps being correct in my view.
That said, when I have to weigh vegetables in supermarket I still pause before selecting the vegetable category to weigh tomatoes.
