It can be the result of higher boiling oils that were not removed during the refining process or particulate from bad fuel handing. It can also be created by oxidation during storage or the chemical reaction of some fuel components.

I think it's just semantics. Varnish, sugar, gum... all the same thing that clogs orifices. I think names originating in the trades should have their own dictionary.
