Default Scrambling eggs, a question

But my question was specific. I was asking not how to make scrambled eggs
as one who has never cooked eggs before, but rather which method people
used. Think of it as an informal survey for my own interest.

We have seen that some call omelettes (beaten aside) scrambled eggs,
whereas others are specific about it being done right in the pan. The
result is different, so one would think that the term would be specific to
the result, but not so. It seems that there is a vagueness in the
application of the English language here (watch somebody make something out
of THAT one).

Obviously some understood the question and many didn't and assumed I wanted
instruction or suggestions.
