> We use the term ‘User Preference for Google Search’ and never the term market share,” that document says

Now that this document is out, can't the government just map their fancy words back to the original word using this doc as a map?

Not easily, because how do you separate the now-two uses of "people prefer Google search?" Sometimes they mean "market share" and sometimes they mean "people prefer Google search," and there's now no way to tease them apart reliably.

If it were so, how is it possible for the Google employees to tell them apart?

Right, exactly. They don't want employees talking about market share or dominance at all!
