It's not referring to two different things, it's just that there are multiple paths that can lead to that state.
What about reassigning? Should we be reassigning the jira when transitioning to "REVIEWABLE" or "RESOLVED", to the person who is reviewing or verifying? I personally prefer to not reassign the issue, but rather have separate fields for "reviewer" and "verifier/QA contact".
