Contrary to people's opinion on this topic I agree to what the author has to say. He states his point in the introduction: " they use terms imprecisely, they write like journalists not scientists".
This is a classic example on how we popularize misuse of certain words/concepts. And Wiki isn't always the best source when we argue on these subjects. I have nothing against anybody using words as they like. But the more we use appropriate terms, the more we can make ourselves better understood.
Most people don't care about semantics but there are some that do. And those who are actively participating in a filed like the scientific one should try to be as clear as possible. Science requires rigor.
