@minimalsm @jmcook1186 @wackerow i think we need to reconsider the purpose of these glossary terms, especially the basic terms such as "account", "address" and probably a few others are too important to be described in a tech spec style like it is now.

Especially if we are to use the glossary mouse over widget more, these explanations will be more visible and must be up to the task broadly relevant and useful to a non tech person.

@konopkja This makes me think of a dual-purpose glossary. Have a technical and an ELI5 glossary maybe? Future idea, your comment just sparked that idea.

Thanks @konopkja, can you create an issue to implement these in our new JSON structure?

Closing this PR out as the structure of the glossary has fundamentally changed.
