Why do they use the word Release? Release of entropy suddenly drops into the picture when talking abt ice to water. Why not just say info/entropy/uncertainty of the system is increasing or decreasing?

This subject is new to me but I like the 20 questions analogy.

Thinking of probability distribution of N words as a measure of info in someone's mind is interesting.

Disciplined minds that have certain concepts on their finger tips clearly have spent time and effort producing that distribution.
