I'm using this module to make it easy for my client to create simple products all on the one screen, and because of this simple use case, I find the term 'product variation' to be confusing...

It's basically being used as a fieldset for all the product-specific fields (SKU, price, etc.) and so they don't end up creating/adding more than one product per display.

I have my product reference field's 'Number of values' set to 1, so perhaps this module could check that value and re-word it's descriptions appropriately...?

I plan to have a different "mode" for single value reference fields, that wouldn't show the table and most of the fieldsets (not even the save buttons) of the widget. Basically, it would just be the inline form.
#1527788: Add a form alter hook for the inline forms should be enough for anything that doesn't get solved by that (unwanted language, etc).

In general, I find the term 'product variation' a bit peculiar, as it's not used anywhere else in Commerce.

Now it is. Brave new world.

That said, even though that is the language Kickstart v2 decided to use, it still needs to be alterable or even configurable.

The patch in #1626706: Rework entity type specific code into controllers adds a setting that makes the variation language optional and off by default.
