I thought it mostly made sense;

Avoid Stroop interference: don't specifically use red font for the
word green. Don't use "Ham Sandwich" to describe a high pressure
antinode.

Keep things the same as much as possible.
Use the same term throughout the text you are writing, unless there is
a good reason to use a different term
e.g., don't use speaker bush, speaker bushing, speaker tube, register
tube, register bush, and register bushing interchangeably, without
having a good reason. Pick a term and stick with it.

Be explicit:
e.g., Use nouns rather than pronouns

Build context
Put ideas in a logical order
Define new ideas and technical terms at their first occurrence.
