Description

"Buckets" appear to be a synonym for "share"? But it's unclear.

https://tahoe-lafs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/architecture.html only mentions the word in the context of a Foolscap method.

Might be better to omit "buckets" altogether unless the distinction is important somehow.

More broadly, definitions of terminology would be useful addition to start of document.
