[sc34wg3] What do we mean by reification?

I don't think so. As far as I can tell, the RM can simply use
"representation" and be done with it. It's a simpler term, it
communicates better, and it's closer to the intended meaning. As for
"reification", the RM does not need that term, although SAM does.
