So I kinda walked away from this to think about what's being said a bit and I just kinda have to disagree? Like, being clear and concise and accurate in defining something is hella important.... to the people that care about those things. The thing we see though isn't lacking definitions, especially in a legal sense, but people not pushing back enough whenever bad actors start bringing up terrible arguments. There are people out there that you can bring up the best, most logical points in the world and they will still twist and twist and twist until your original point is lost. We can make the most robust, perfect definitions and some people will STILL either find ways around it or completely ignore what was rationally established. The definition doesn't matter, the problem is fascists want to monitor the world and make whoever they want disappear and people kinda just let it happen.

And to be clear, I'm trying to say you're completely wrong. Defining things is important to establish a shared common framework of understanding and policy making and regulations are SO SO SO IMPORTANT cause they save lives in more than just one way, but problem isn't clear cut to be solved with "we need to define things better." We have a culture issue. Culture issues need more than one approach to resolve.
