Sure, I personally don't use "academic" terms against other people. It does make the words lose meaning, which is why I use context and followup questions to really understand if the distinction is important.

I think it's ok to bemoan the semantic drift of useful terms, away from the people trying to simply communicate with me. (No point in chastising.)

I'm not sure where you are getting where I am "ripping apart someone adjacent to me."

In this instance, like most comments here, my comments are directed generally to readers, exactly like yours was. You're obviously not attacking anyone and I didn't suggest you were, which is why I started my comment with "and."

Thanks for the clarification! Sorry, I misunderstood.
