Anyone have any advice on this? How to choose them, how to mark them? My initial plan was take the product-specific terminology and mark them in bold text on first appearance, but on first appearance most of them are defined, so that seems a bit silly. To call out every use in bold would look awful. Should they not be marked after all?
