Keying whole words

1. In the same attached document the in Example 1 the transcriber chose to use a whole word as their keyed item. I did not think this was acceptable until i saw the Example 11.6 which uses the whole word Yes and No including capital indicators as the keyed item. Is this acceptable?

Also in your response you said if you used mo for Motivation to Learn the New Skill, that is a key not an abbreviation. But in BF 11.7.1h na is used for nanosecond. I'm trying to understand why that is called an abbreviation and not considered a key.

Thank you.
