Use that example, and imagine how a users are faced with so many words
that user does not know, is going to become unsure. You said it
well. That is why each word that one reads or writes in Emacs, should
be easily looked up for its definition.

And I mean each word, not just special or technical words. GNU has
GCIDE and dictionary servers, there is Wordnut, there are hacker
dictionaries and abbreviations.
