I'm not sure why this has to be specified more than once. Is a "slurry" meaningfully different enough from a "suspension" or "solution" such that it needs to be specified each time?

A slurry is a type of suspension, I guess.
It's a carrier medium... and it's pretty thick. I would have just committed to "slurry".
Sandy water at the beach that looks a bit brown? Suspension.
Mining run off that looks like soup and coats everything? Slurry.
What's the Half & Half between milk and cream but for tweaky techniques for fabrication? Slurspension?
