Piotr Wozniak has defined Incremental Reading

Incremental Reading is a proper noun. It happens to be two common words used together. "Incremental" stands for the main aspect of Incremental Reading which is incrementalism, but that is just one of the aspects of the method; there is more. That is, a methof of reading that is incremental doesn't make it Incremental Reading.
Piotr Wozniak could have coined a new word for the method so no disembiguity would be necessary.
The term "incremental reading" is nearly two decades old, and it slowly percolates into the awareness of users of spaced repetition. To ensure that no half-baked product can claim the title, please demand that the authors of software that claims to "implement incremental reading" comply with the "minimum definition" outline below
