   I think Humpty Dumpty is on your side.   
      
   'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, 'it   
   means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.'   
   'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many   
   different things.'   
   'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master — that's all.'

   I agree that there is not much point in continuing this   
   interchange, at least  from any technical perspective.
