From 535aca7a8d2ecb7112401e590a7d1914c0a61940 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Jeff Young <jeff@rokeby.ie>
Date: Sun, 18 Aug 2024 17:17:49 -0600
Subject: [PATCH] Remove redundant tooltips.
Also fixes grammar and capitalisation in a few tooltips.
Also standardises some terminology, such as
"Add" vs "Draw"/"Place" and "Assignment" vs "Association".
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/17694
