Default RE: Torque and P factor, why do we continually confuse them?

How about just learning the correct names of aircraft structure. Here on RCU I have read posts that call the horizontal stabilizer the: tail wing, secondary wing, and even elevator. How about postings describing the rudder when they really mean the vertical stabilizer.
It is a hobby and many model aircraft pilots have no clue as to how and why the model does what it does, I just grin and bear it.
