Can someone clarify for me?

We have an unfortunate overloading of the term "interface" here:
"A routing system is all or part of a routing network such as an interface, a 
collection of
interfaces, a router, or a collection of routers.  Interfaces to the Routing 
System..."

These are not the same sort of interfaces, and their proximity can lead to 
confusion. One moves packet traffic, the other is more of an information 
interface or even an API. Do we need to modify the first one to refer to it as 
"an interface or collection of interfaces to transmit/receive packet data" or 
some such? Or am I inferring a distinction where none is desired?

Thanks
