file Why "put this card on" instead of "attach this card to"

The VEKN has started to use the new term "attached" to describe a card that is put on another card and the card that it has been put on. I like the change, but I wonder why you didn't say "attach this card to" instead of "put this card on". It seems more consistent to use the same verb and easier to understand.

"Unlock this vampire, choose a Discipline they have at superior and put this card on [attach this card to?] another ready non-titled vampire you control. The attached vampire is considered anarch (and Independent), and gets +1 level of the chosen Discipline. If the attached vampire changes sect, burn this card. A vampire can have only one Field Training."

That would put the rules coordinator out of business. We have to have something to argue about or it wouldn't be vtes.

:tore: :pre: :tem: :aus: Independent Futurist. Contrarian (titled, X votes where X is the number of votes as the acting minion.) Target Vitals is always the better combat card.

I have no idea if this is the reason why, but the current team have shown a fairly strong preference towards shorter card text where possible. And "attach this card to" takes up more space than "Put this card on".
