My humble opinion is that more words just add complexity but not simplicity
for the users. It's best to have just a few words with much freedom. A
strict way of expressing a camera is okay if it protects against troubleful
rendering, but not if it mostly takes away freedom.. This is a fine balance,
but more keywords would give ... a mess.
