This is just great- a perfect example of how even a vastly experienced user can be confused by repeated usage of name `Tools` in `Options`

So I just do not understand why there is such repetition Thus I propose changing that second Tools to something else. My propositions are: CTRL Shorcuts Additional Tools Stunts User's Aides User's Shorcuts User's Tools User's Utensils And then also that third usage of Tools, sitting just right above…

I was talking about the first `Tools`, and not the second. So your answer here is exactly the kind of situation that can be avoided when that other proposition of mine gets through
