There are several conflations of concepts and terms - i.e. 'users', 'network participants', 'identity' etc. You can address those by creating a glossary.

Thanks, that's a useful list. As we move forward and start to use those terms, it would be good to be precise about what we mean by them. For now, I'll try to pull together some terms that could use precision right now.
