If you want to be taken at all seriously you need to understand that the pragmatics of communication demand at least some consensus on the meaning of the words used. Otherwise no-one can really be sure what you are saying. This paragraph will have liitle meaning to you of course because "Pragmatics has nothing to do with practicality". "Communication has nothing to do with sharing information" "Consensus has nothing to do with agreement" "Sure has nothing to do with certainty" You can see why I don't take you seriously at all not that I think you care as long as the debate gets bogged down in semantics.
