It's really only a bother when you are either intermixing rules or talking on a board like this where no one realizes a soul vessel and a spirit jar are the same thing.Does there need to be consistency?
For a while we had a degree of consistency, since most of the OSR and other fantasy heartbreakers borrowed so heavily from D&D. But if different games are using different words for a lich's soul box or to describe a character's ancestry, is that a problem?
I admit, it bothered me at first that different games were using all sorts of term to replace "race" . . . heritage, ancestry, species, origin, etc, etc . . . but now, it doesn't.
