   <p>Categorizing objects which look or behave in very similar ways can also confuse the user, who may not 
understand the subtle distinction between the categories. There is no need to choose terms for different 
types of window, for example.</p>
   <p>If you are defining a terminology guide for your project, think about what it is necessary to define 
and what can be left up to the writer. Consistency in terminology is important for readers, but specifying 
too much makes it difficult for writers to follow your guidelines.</p>
