I'm not sure how my language is ambiguous. It's very clear to those participating that buying an NFT does not give you ownership over the intellectual property of the artwork, or even ownership over the image itself, hence the many "Right click Save As" memes[1]. > Anyone who actually knows what an NFT is is very unlikely to agree that these NFTs are part of an art project or have an artistic intent. This is pretty presumptuous, and also wrong. One such counter-example is ZKM, which began acquiring NFTs in 2018.[2] [1] - https://superrare.com/artwork/right-click-and-save-as-guy-1154 https://superrare.com/artwork/right-click-and-save-as-guy-11...

It's an ambiguous language, for example, when you say that the NFT "represents part of the CryptoPunks art project". Is it true? Well, maybe. A bread crumb can represent the starship Enterprise, but it would be absurd to describe it in this way. Or when ZKM describes NFTs as "digitally certified images" and also as "digital works" that are "transformed into unique pieces" (from your own link). In this is case, not so much ambiguous, but directly deceiving.
