That's a big part of the story of aviation; the way things are communicated has changed because of brain farts, the way things are lined up, etc.

NOTE-
Previous reviews of air traffic events, involving LUAW instructions, revealed that a significant number of pilots read back LUAW instructions correctly and departed without a takeoff clearance. LUAW instructions are not to be confused with a departure clearance; the outcome could be catastrophic, especially during intersecting runway operations.
The older term was "hold short runway X" and that was too close to "hold runway X" - the first meant do NOT enter the runway, the second meant enter and line up but do NOT takeoff.
- lisper 8mo agoThe old version of “line up and wait” was “taxi into position and hold”. “Hold short of runway” is still in use but means something different.
