I hear words like "tactical, practical, & strategic" used quite often. Are these word interchangable? Are they diff' degrees of the same thing? Please explain...

Your observations are correct, but what you're observing is changing jargon, not meanings.the meanings are changing.
* * *
"Tactical" is coming to be a synonym for "silly" or "overwrought."

"Practical" is being invoked more and more as the opposite of "tactical" above.
Generals are strategic
Captains are tactical
tactical=retail plus 20%
Practical=retail plus 40%
Strategic=retail plus 200% (government contract)
