The core part of that definition is “in need of repair”. It’s “in poor condition because it’s broken,” not “in poor condition because it’s depressed.” The OP just made an honest typo, it shouldn’t detract from their post, let’s move along. :) P.S. Personally, I also thought fakedang’s comment was fine. Just a helpful little note in case anyone was confused.)
