For U-Boot,it makes no difference. The problem is  with  Linux,  when
you get used to using an incorrect or at least imprecise terminology.
When  I ask: "Is it OK to reset the server?" that is pretty different
from "Is it OK to reboot the server?".

My motivation was purely educational :-)

Best regards,
