Problem

Global styles currently has the terms 'root' and 'by block type' exposed. I would like to propose that these are iterated to be a little more non-technical user friendly. You don't find many people that don't code saying root unless talking about plants or haircuts.

Recommendation

I would suggest framing this as 'site' and 'block' probably works better for translation and also understanding, but there are a lot of options in language to explore that are more relatable.

Agreed with using more natural verbiage. There's a scenario where that term isn't visible.
