Discussion time: Why is Starship’s reentry into the atmosphere labeled as reentry and we all agree, it was in the atmosphere, left it, reentered it. But SpaceX for some reason calls Falcon 9’s booster’s reentry burn just an “entry burn”… why? It follows the same string of events

They are used somewhat synonymously. “Entry” is easier on the tongue than “reentry”.
