Ok since fire seems to be causing an issue, lets go the other way.
If I want to pour a bucket of water on the ground...for any reason, it could serve no purpose at all other than to enjoy the beauty of physics and water seeking the lowest point possible...why does it need to be called anything?
I mean I sort of understand to one extent that if it is used to help a roll it needs a name because the system sort of lives off of + 2 bonuses to rolls due to aspect/maneuver/etc.
However, why does the terminology matter?
Perhaps I'm just not thinking enough here or something but this whole thread drift away from hiring people seems to be pointless and I would like to understand better.
