Which is why people are saying we need to put in more work to define this term. Which is the whole point of this conversation.

And have you ever considered that it's because people are refining their definitions?

Often when people find that their initial beliefs are wrong or not precise enough then they update their beliefs. You seem to be calling this a flaw. It's not like the definitions are dramatically changing, they're refining. There's a big difference

My first post here is me explaining that I have a non-standard definition of what ‘understanding’ means, which helps me avoid an apparently thorny issue. I’m literally here offering a refinement of a definition.

This is a weird conversation.
