All true but not directly related to the terminology of Outline vs. Chapter. We
concluded somewhere else that chapter numbering should be available on the
actual numbering tab in the paragraph properties dialog.
Whether Outline or Chapter, none seems to be perfectly clear without reading a
documentation or doing the usual trial and error. Once you know the workflow
labels are kinda inferior.
Most of us are not native speakers. The implicit translation could result in
misinterpretation. I would trust in the recommendation of native speakers,
which is Dave here. No offense to anyone, many of you are linguistic geniuses.
A good idea, if it comes to localization questions, is to involve the l10n
team. Ideally via mailing list.


We all pull together. Controversial opinions are necessary to ponder different
views, and somehow we have to make a choice. I'm also not happy with every
democratic decision taken in the past. But have to ask myself: is it really
worth to fight?
