My biggest issue is that there are really only 2 parties, I get what you mean about the 400 terms, but in my experience, most of them are slightly different too the point that a separate term is justified. That being said I wouldn't mind some standardization since sometimes the terms were made in a context that makes them mean the exact opposite to what the average person interprets it as.
