Should we call this entity a "statement" (rather than nugget)

While the word "nugget" has the advantange of being easy to remember, it does not adequately describe the two key aspects of the concept:

  1. a piece of information that will remain in its original form
  2. a piece of information that has distinguished authors.

There are words that more aptly describe these features: e.g. claim, statement.

=> The word statement is more self-explanatory and is therefore suggested instead of "nugget".
