Why the distinction matters
Terms used across history and modern investigations can silently change meaning. A reliable archive states its intended scope, avoids using definitions as proof, and distinguishes an observation from a claim about causality. If a term appears within testimony, the original speaker and recording context matter. If it appears in contemporary analysis, its operational definition should be testable.
