I agree with everything you just said except for with respect to "UFO". Technically, until an object that is inflight is identified, it remains an unidentified flying object.
Also, it is worth keeping in mind that there are, even now, uncontacted tribes [1] that have yet to enter the modern erra:

- the_jeremy 8y agoMost people mean "alien spaceship" not "something I can't make out" when they say UFO, despite the literal meaning of the acronym.
- wyldfire 8y agoAgreed. But I think aviators still use this term to describe "something I can't make out." I suppose it's the likely origin of the term.
