I think stuff like “tracks” comes from leagues of the absolutely most condescending technically competent repository in the history of words and letters: stack overflow forums.

And some of the ambiguity I think comes from liability training sets, designed with a preference for not making direct attributions to parties who could claim they were incorrectly characterized. The habit can be seen in like half of Claude messages, where its responses have multiple inert objects or concepts being described through active personalized verbs. Like “the build rejected an undeclared package” as opposed to saying “the build failed because I didn’t update the packages.json.”
