Exactly!

I mean, if you look in dictionaries, you'll see both definitions, but as I said to another user in this thread, dictionaries include a definition because it is common, not because it is accurate. Just look up the term "literal"; most common dictionaries define it as meaning either "literal" or "figurative".

Words exist fundamentally to communicate something; if a term is defined so as to be ambiguous, it has failed in that purpose.
