This is how I see it too. I just wish we wouldn't have to do all the work here, but would actually be told what the #!#% the names are supposed to refer to.
Like my example story of a hero that was known for throwing his sword with deadly accurasy. I'd like to be able to talk about my campaign with another GM without having explane avery single feat and spell. We need common ground.
