  I agree, I hate the terminological abuse.

  That was my initial reaction, and then I thought that they may be just trying to obfuscate the process a bit. The more "technical" terms they use, the more they deter non-target applicants. Though, being too pedantic is certainly risks deterring the target applicants.

    No, you're confused. Nobody is saying they are being pedantic. Everyone is saying the opposite - they are being sloppy and non-technical with their terms.

      I don't believe I am, since JSON is a hash by definition. It is characteristically technical.
