Jordan Arc or Jordan Curve
Isn't a Jordan curve an instance of a Jordan arc -- the one which just happens to have $\map f 0 = \map f 1$?

In this case can we not just say "Jordan arc" and then slap together some boilerplate "A Jordan curve is an instance of a Jordan arc so anything that applies to a generic Jordan arc also applies to a Jordan curve as well.

We surely don't need to write "Jordan arc or Jordan curve" everywhere. Sorry, not only does it make it look clumsy, but people will then want to know what the difference is between the concepts that causes there to be a distinction to be made between the two. --prime mover (talk) 23:19, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
