Subject: Do programmers mean to the same thing when they say nodes?

I know that nodes in some programs(like Junior) include illegal moves and my
question is if the same illegal moves are defined as nodes by all the programs.

If the answer is negative then we cannot say that one program is a faster
searcher only because it searches more nodes per second.

We need a clear definition of nodes to compare.
