The point with using words is that you are referring to a Schelling point that the word represents. In that, your perception is not important, it is what others agree on the word means.

A good way to extract the Schelling point of meaning of words is AI, that is basically what the statistical model does (it does it on semantic vector embedding layer, so very early AI, pre-gpt was already good at it). This is one of the rare examples where you can actually use AI output as an argument, because it's a direct task that the AI's statistical model is trained on.
Also what is funny to me is that Bitcoin is the best example of a cryptocurrency. I don't think it's a good strategy to deny common knowledge, it will never change everyone's mind. A good analogy would be - when people talk about plant medicine, please understand that many plants will just kill you. Not every plant is good for you, even though it's natural. If you want to use a cryptocurrency, use the best one. What is the best one? Well, we have a thing for that, it's called a market, what do people agree on (Schelling point again)? Check the cryptocurrency market cap.
Much more useful than denying obvious reality of how people understand words.
