Ever watch a YouTube review of a gun and start thinking if you took a shot every time they repeated a phrase you'd need your stomach pumped to survive it?
Go find just about any review of a pistol, for example, and count the number of times the presenter says "the handgun". With rifles it tends to be "the weapon".
It's a bit of writing style I'd read a long time ago, so started noticing its use (and not).
If you've got to repeat yourself, paraphrase it by using synonyms.
In other words, buy a thesaurus, and use it, or risk sounding like a parrot in your delivery!
