My system is only about 500 words :)  Programs are similarly modest
so I wouldn't have saved much by reclaiming the odd header.  EXCISE
and VOCABULARY tend to suffice for me.  Savings occur when apps
are turnkeyed as all headers and compiler can be discarded.

I agree that once certain word names are deemed unnecessary it can be
made permanent.  If I change my mind later, I just edit the source code.
