Compare
Use Compare when two terms already sound familiar but still refuse to separate cleanly in your head. The point is to make the split obvious enough that the rest of the topic gets easier to read.
These pages work best when two terms already sound familiar but still feel too close together. Use Compare when you want cleaner edges between account types, fund labels, income language, or risk concepts. Use the hub as a quick sorting tool, not a final destination. Once the split is clear, keep going to the fuller explanation for the term in normal context.
When a comparison page answers the first question, use the links inside that page to keep moving. A comparison is usually the doorway; the fuller Learn article explains the account, fund, or market term in more detail. That keeps the site from turning into a glossary and makes each click more useful.
