: This brings to mind one of my favorite phrases: "The great thing about standards is there's so many." There will be a lot of teams (or groups of teams) trying to push their own universal terms.

I suggest starting with a plain english list of machine functional capabilities or tactical gambits. There is very little in such a list to argue about, and it would highlight how many "universal terms" need adopting by the community. This approach would head off the tendency to immediately start arguing over specific "terms" and grinding a worthwhile effort to a halt.
Then, specific "term" ideas could be viewed and judged in the larger strategic context. I just think it would be easier for a larger community to buy in if we could see in one place everything needed to efficiently communicate and form an alliance strategy in 2 minutes.
