IIRC that is a synonym already; and Factor » Product isn’t a pun, just the what the words literally mean.
oop ok. Wait, production is a word for multiplication? never knew that…
Product not production
OP literally emphasised the distinction between process and result in their post, specifically so that this exact confusion would not occur, and yet still everyone is talking about the word for the result instead of the process.
