- People outside the field likely have enough concept of weaving (or fabrics) to know what the terminology might refer to.
- Weaving terminology is woven into our language(s). Before the industrial revolution, that was a huge labour industry - it was part of family/daily life.
- Words like 'sett' and 'weft' are clearly domain-specific and could be looked up. That's far less clear for 'language' and 'array' and 'map'; non-specialists are unlikely to recognise they are being used in a domain-specific way. Is a 'hash map' a type of map?
