I'm curious about the word choice of recipe and how-to guide. In my mind they seem synonymous. Do y'all have preferred word choice?

Upon discussion at today's documentation meeting, I have decided to shelve the effort to write a how to for how to guides. The primary reason is we don't know best advice to give contributors when writing nix.dev how-to guides. First, I'll explore contributing some guides then maybe revisit.
