Serious question. We had a perfectly serviceable word, yet everyone decided to shift. Is it just that it’s shorter to type?
If so, I feel for your colleagues trying to parse your code when all your variables use abbreviations.

It could be regional or arbitrary. I say ‘coding’ a lot because it’s shorter. I could say one is about the keyboard work and one is about the architecture and design, but it’s really the fact that one’s shorter.
But in my environment, they’re interchangeable as much as anything can be. And I’ve grown up using both; even in college in the '90s, coding C and m68k.
YMMV?
