How does using a scientific name makes things less confusing?

Using scientific names makes it more easier for people to understand it. If were to say go and get me a thing that you can see stars with up close. That would be confusing to some people because they have no idea what you are talking about. So instead of describing the scientific tool, say what it is. If you don't know what it is and someone asks you about it, then instead of giving them a wrong answer or saying you don't know, ask a parent or older person to help you and that other person who might know what it means to help you and that other person.
