Actually I didn't specifically mean you, though I have to admit that 
after writing it, I noticed you might feel portrayed with that.

Nothing wrong with that. Insisting on exact terminology isn't always a 
Good Thing or a Bad Thing, it all depends on circumstances. (I don't 
have issues with nitpicking, nor issues with being corrected; I do have 
issues with being treated as if I were an idiot.)

What surprised me is that you object to being precise here.
Care to give convincing reasons?
