As funny as it was, I’m still confused. Just because it’s a different context (inference of a parameter by assuming p̂=p vs amount of successes divided by sample size) that means we need different terminology for the same value?

Some snobby specialists (specifically descriptive and inferential statisticians) from a long time ago refused to abandon their preferred nomenclature, and so now I have to juggle jargon around in my head unnecessarily? Ok. I get WHY the distinction exists, but I still think it’s bullshit.
