--- Comment #16 from Mike Kaganski <mikekaganski at hotmail.com> ---
To clarify a bit:

Say, you are a user who (a) does not know what OLE means, and (b) needs to know
if the files used to insert something into a main document may be safely
deleted.

In the current state, when the OLE term is used, *both* knowing what it means,
and *not* knowing what it means forces you to do some additional steps to check
if the files are safe to delete (when you know, you realize that OLE may be
both linked and embedded, so you need to check *somehow* which one is this; and
when you don't know, you simply have no information).

In the proposed change, the user sees the recognized "embedded" term, which
tells exactly what they need to know (and which lies, but the user would learn
that after the fact).
