Static fatigue.. is still crack growth. So all uses of the word fatigue do
seem to correspond with crack growth. In glass it is usually driven by
moisture enabling cracks to grow at stress intensities below those required
for rapid failure.

Aging is a microstructural development term referring to a "heat treatment"
that occurs at or somewhat above room tmnperature.
