I don't think you want to live in a world where "words mean things" in the way you're describing. It would make everyone's life extremely difficult.

- dingaling 3y agoI think that world is preferable to one in which the meaning of words is different to their definition.
- Dylan16807 3y agoNobody is suggesting that words be outside their definition. It's that the definitions are not super super narrow. And the other issue is that one person's interpretation of a word's most narrow definition is not going to be objectively right.
