Intentional use of accounting terms?

I'm wondering if the use of the words 'debit' and 'credit' in the definitions of 'mint' and 'burn' are intentionally used in the technical accounting sense of the term or not. The current wording implies that accounts are credit-normal (like a liability) and the total supply is debit-normal (like an asset). If that's the case, I think that that should be made explicit in the readme and the verbiage on https://github.com/dapphub/ds-token/blob/13e09345fb459103875a6266705a14ab6f72b6d3/README.md#L18-L24 should change to read more like

```Markdown
#### `mint`
increase (credit) tokens at an address whilst simultaneously increasing (debiting) `totalSupply`
(requires auth)

#### `burn`
decrease (debit) tokens at an address whilst simultaneously decreasing (crediting) `totalSupply`
(requires auth)
