    that’s what the word means

    “You can’t use X word like that because [It’s made up|That’s not what it means|It means something else]” argument is always incredibly weak.

    At its very core, language is dynamic, words come, go and change all the time. It’s how it works. Languages that don’t change, die.

    On top of that, words can have multiple meanings that are dependent on context.
