Keeping this on the scuba front......

I don't think these are interchangeable are they, cos.....:

We don't get Lobsters in this part of the world, but we do get some kind of
salt water Crayfish (a different creature - it doesn't have the big claw)
and just call it a Lobster due to our ignorance and jealousy.

Again, shrimp and Prawn are two different creatures are they not - its just
that people don't know how to tell the difference and think it is all down
to size (and we know that size isn't everything!).
