::: Torsion refers specifically to the structure of a module. That is, the module has torsion when some of its elements have finite order (they are cyclic subgroups). By the way you're wording things, it seems like defactoring refers to properties of the matrices involved. That way it's fine though: "enfactored mapping" and "enfactored comma basis" are clear enough.
::: Surely you're not claiming the work you've done on exterior algebra is basic! I guess I'm not always sure what level of depth/complexity an article should fall on. I do think it's possible to explain 'advanced' concepts clearly, as you have certainly demonstrated.
