Like many start-ups, the company that I work with has developed its own definitions and terminologies that are unintelligible to outsiders. I experienced this before and found it very hard even when there were business/financial/legal implications (e.g. calling something a safety device when it wasn't).<p>For people who have been with the company for a very long time, everything is very consistent and it all makes sense which it sort of does once the whole history is explained. However, this makes poor UI/UX and quite confusing to everyone else, including customers.<p>Wondering if anyone has experience dealing with this and how they approached adopting more standardized nomenclature consistent with the product industry that they're in?
