To point to one example of the problem, this draft defines "push based"
as using multicast. Decent uses multicast. But not all push based
systems use multicast. The definitions of push-based and pull-based
should be general. Decent-pulll and decent-push (or some other terms)
can be defined as this document uses them.

Right, the LISP-Decent pushed-based uses multicast. The other one, NERD, used
management protocols and not a control plane if I recall.
the term had an understood meaning. Also, pull-based and push-based have
well-defined meaning in many contexts. This draft
The pull-based is what all the mapping systems are using. For LISP-Decent we
wanted to distinguish the pull-based mechanism based on hashing from the
push-base multicast method.
seems to use those terms in a rather idiosyncratic (not incorrect, but
confusing) fashion. I am not sure whether different terms or additional
qualifiers are the better solution.
Did I make it clearer?
