Discussion on: Does it bother you when programmers use the word "Arguments" and "Parameters" interchangeably ?

Absolutely not!

Synonyms are different words that mean pretty much the same thing. The words are close enough that everyone knows what you are talking about. Arguments, parameters, variables, factors, input, etc. are all interchangeable words.

Real devs only care about the code. Word analysis is the job of poets and lawyers.
