Etymology
The word relaxation comes from Latin re- 'again' and laxare 'to loosen'. In math, a relaxation method uses repeated small steps to 'loosen' errors until the solution fits, like easing a tight knot until it opens. That's why relaxation here means a repeated process that reduces mistakes until they are acceptably small.
