Er... doesn't Janice Kim like to make up weird terminology in her books?

I believe that on the page after "the pivot" is introduced, she also refers to, "the alien shape."

Making up English go terminology is a pastime for a number of people. English go literature is still a new field. We will eventually have an established vocabulary. :)
