   The words matter since it raises complexity to use unfamiliar words.

Recently I've started using Eclipse as part of my job, and it uses
several words whos definition I'm not familiar with; for example view,
perspective and workspace.  I've used Eclipse daily now for four
months, and the terminology still doesn't stick for me.  Does this
make Eclipse harder to use? Not at all.  Does it make it more complex?
Not really.  They are just words, with some meaning.
