Use "Primer Paso" consistently across user-facing copy #5

Description

@jokroese

Background

Feedback identified too many overlapping terms:

  • Primer Paso
  • Siguiente paso
  • Orientador

This creates unnecessary conceptual load. The strongest and clearest name is "Primer Paso".

Problem

Different terms make users wonder whether these are separate tools, stages, or services.

The product should not ask people to understand internal naming distinctions before they understand what the tool does.

Proposed change

Use "Primer Paso" as the main name of the tool.

Avoid "orientador" as a product label. Use descriptive phrases instead when needed, for example:

  • el formulario
  • unas preguntas
  • tu resultado
  • tu siguiente paso

Keep "siguiente paso" only where it means the literal next action, not as a competing product name.

Implementation notes

Search translation files and docs for terms equivalent to:

  • orientador
  • guidance tool
  • next step tool
  • siguiente paso as a branded concept

Update:

  • src/lib/content/es.ts
  • src/lib/content/en.ts
  • src/lib/content/fr.ts
  • src/lib/content/ar.ts
  • docs/design-spec.md, if needed
  • README.md, if needed

Suggested Spanish direction:

Primer Paso te hace unas preguntas sencillas para ayudarte a entender qué podrías necesitar y cuál puede ser tu siguiente paso.

Avoid:

Usa el orientador para conocer tu siguiente paso.

Acceptance criteria

  • User-facing copy consistently names the service “Primer Paso”.
  • "Orientador" is removed as a product label.
  • "Siguiente paso" is used only as plain descriptive text, not as a competing name.
  • Navigation, home page, start page, result page, handover copy, and footer are reviewed.
  • Spanish, English, French, and Arabic copy remain aligned.
  • Tests pass.

Why this matters

The service is for people under stress. Naming should reduce decisions, not create them.
