Let's leave the regular names bc backwards compatability and this is good normie bait

But let's still have good words

Nice.

I came up with submit, verify and effect before after reading your speculations about even/odd numbers of letters but then I got too lost in the weeds for reasons having to do with redesigning the entire thing in very crazy ways and the only path to personal sanity was strictly following the dogma of backwards compatibility and trying to do the simplest and most conservative thing that could possibly be a good idea.

But I love load, cock and fire.

Side note: the methodology of verbal overlap and more essentially verbal primacy seems like a very interesting strategy whose implications I think we are just getting started discovering. It's basically a complete ontological inversion and I strongly believe it could have extremely powerful consequences.

It's kind of equivalent to the core insight of REST/HATEOAS and comparable to the CLOS interpretation of object-oriented design (widely considered to be superior to normie ideas by informed wizards). An even more obvious reference that seems almost vulgar to mention is of course functional programming.

Let's keep digging here.

also one of the words is "cock" so we automatically win the hearts part of the hearts-and-minds tactic

the reason you love it is because you wanted to call it a "gun"
