You might have several "Senior" Writers, but you can only have one
"Principal" Writer.
A Principal Writer could be described as the "Publication Chef" while
the other writers (Senior and otherwise) would be like the documentation
sous-chef and line cooks to whom is given certain portions of the menu
depending on their skill level. It is understood that the final product
will be attributed (for better or worse) to the "Principal Writer." The
term is very applicable to a single-sourcing environment where one TW is
responsible for the "big picture."

What would you say the difference is? Semantic only?
