Establish domain-specific ubiquitous language where each concept maps to exactly one term and each term maps to exactly one concept to eliminate translation overhead.
Why This Is a Principle
Grounds to Linguistic Structuring of Thought (language structures thought) and Scientific Paradigms Are Incommensurable (paradigms are incommensurable when terms carry different meanings).

Actionable for teams and personal systems, general, and follows from axioms about language and communication.
