You can have pre-defined icon packs. That may show related terms in a similar way or something. imagine word 'word' being replaced with a symbol everywhere you read. Replacing 1000 most used words, phrases with symbols makes it that much easier to read.

What a mess would that be with different platforms showing the same icons differently.
