Events vs Messages?

[IGx89]

Hello! I'm a bit confused about the difference between an event and a message. The documentation, such as this page, mostly use the term "event", but in the Portal and even in a couple places on this page, I see "message" everywhere and not event. I'd expect the "Terminology" page to explain the difference, but it doesn't. Would be nice for it to explain that, or if they're the same to be consistent in always using "event" or always using "message".

Main area where it could be different (in my head) is in batches: does a batch of 10 events count as a single message, or is it 10 messages (event == message)?

Thanks!
