Sorry, I don't have anything particular to add to what I already wrote.
As I said, I have no great objection to a replacement of "define/definition"
everywhere" by "declare/declaration", if done consistently and with attention.
It is tilting at windmills IMO, but go for it if you think it improves
something.
But see what I wrote earlier for a more nuanced response.
If what I've written doesn't help you, please ignore it.
