"seasoning"
Haha...OK
A seasoned cast iron pan refers to how experienced the pan is. The seasoning isn't additional flavoring, it's the result of years of real use.
When cleaning a cast iron pan you want to scrub off any "seasoning" (definition 1) without removing any "seasoning" (definition 3).
sea·soned
/ˈsēz(ə)nd/
adjective
(of food) having had salt, pepper, herbs, or spices added.
"seasoned flour"
(of wood) made suitable for use as timber by adjusting its moisture content.
"it was made from seasoned, untreated oak"
accustomed to particular conditions; experienced.
"she is a seasoned traveler"
If there's anything in the pan that you couldn't argue is physically part of the pan, you should clean it.
