Rules
- The Business Case, Stakeholder Analysis, Project Plan and milestones use the
PO term; the Python source, its docstrings and its tests use the IT term.
- One IT term per PO term and one PO term per IT term; no synonyms.
- The Domain Model does not exist in this project (no use case is modelled), so
the dictionary holds the terms of the documents that exist.
