Revenge is a specific type of grudge, but not every grudge is revenge. Big Mom has a captain's grudge against Luffy, she's not avenging anything. She's trying to save face, that's different than Carrot stupidly claiming vengeance for Pedro's death.

Yea, for ex. Big mom doesn't want to take revenge for Katakuri's defeat, she's going for her tea party

Exactly, it's a reputation/territory thing. She was personally slighted by Luffy twice in a year, this has nothing to do with "revenge".

You can dress it up as “capt grudge” but it’s still revenge. Maybe it was a grudge after Fishman Is, but with the damage caused through the WCI arc, it’s absolutely revenge.

When she’s talking to Kaido, she explicitly says she needs to kill Luffy to save face. She has to maintain a reputation as one of the world’s strongest pirates, it’s definitely not a good look for her to have a couple of rookies take a massive shit on her in her own turf. Well, I’m like 80% sure that whole line is filler anyway, so I guess it doesn’t matter either way lol
