We use the term "working tree" for UI and documents. "worktree" is
only used in code comments and stuff.

Hmph, that is a bit different from what I recall.  "working tree" is
the phrase we have used and we still use to refer to those things
that are checked out (as opposed to the in-repo data).  We say
"worktree" when we want to stress the fact that we are talking about
a single instance among possibly multiple instances of the "working
tree" that are associated to a single repository.

Technically speaking, the traditional "working tree" is everything
in the directory immediately above ".git/" plus ".git/index"; a
single "worktree" consists of a bit more, as we have to count per
worktree states like .git/rebase-apply/ and .git/refs/bisect/ as
part of it.

And from that point of view, HEAD is one of those per worktree
states, so...
