Renaming Exposed status

When players see the status, some think that your position is exposed instead of the actual effect so maybe we can rename it to be 'Vulnerable' or something

Exposed can be a new effect where a survivor position is revealed (exposed)

    They need to put it on the loading screen tips, I believed it was like that for way longer than I should've when I started off. Maybe even add it to the tutorial where Trapper has NOED active during endgame and it teaches you about the effect and how to cleanse totems.

    Expose comes from old MMO wording where you deal more damage to a target. For example in WoW, Expose Weakness is a skill that makes you deal more damage. DBD just copied and stole the name from those old games. It comes from RTS/MMO/Moba type games.

    Expose makes sense for old gamer but makes less sense for newer ones because they didn't play old games. the name origins idea comes from games having armor and Expose removing armor. It kinda makes sense if you consider health-states in dbd as armor and expose ignoring armor.
