gollark: This sort of thing makes natural languages quite annoying, but you can help by, well, not picking the most emotionally charged word which "technically matches".
gollark: If I say "that person is a criminal" you might very well have a worsened opinion of them, even if I know that all they actually did was jaywalking or something. It's technically not *false* to call them that but misleads.
gollark: Using a word which is technically right by a dictionary definition can be misleading because it has connotations which possible alternate choices of word don't.
gollark: They are important. Words aren't clear cut definitions like, say, mathematical objects, and the dictionary just points to some common uses.
gollark: Great!
