To hold to your definition of Turing completeness would make the term effectively pointless. If you relax the definition only so slightly, suddenly it has meaning again to say that something can be Turing complete.

It would make the statement "X needs Turing completeness" meaningless in a particular, strict sense. I understood what the parent was talking about, speaking loosely, and I originally stated that my post was not meant as criticism.
