Do we really belittle officials who use the term "end line"?

I guess I am one of the nice ones
I gave one part of the meaning, you gave the other (Just like a lot of words in a dictionary). And no we do not belittle anyone with the term "base line", but people do see that as a negative or incorrect usage of the actual definition or the word used in the rulebook. At least they are often treated that way.

Peace
