>>6740210Where shit gets goofy is when the Zeta comes in with its tail binder. The official term for the thing is "tail stabilator", but very few people call it that because people both in and out of universe associate the term "binder" with "any movable thing that helps with mobility".
So in a classic example of language drift, a technical term gets applied to more and more general things until it effectively ceases to have any real meaning.
