Anyone can do that and so you can get a million definitions of any political system, as many as there are opinions about that system. Using the original term for the original idea leaves you with only ONE definition, instead of both the theoretical definitions and a million "practical" definitions. If you then want to describe ANOTHER system claiming to be one thing but not fitting the definition, then you should use ANOTHER word for that other thing. It leaves a lot less room for confusion, arguments about semantics, arguments about what really characterized one government or another, and appeals to authority. AND it won't leave room for watering down the terms.
God I wish for people to stop vandalizing language.

''I know I'm tired... but I'm not THAT tired right?? I swear it was a pillow, I was staring at that pillow for 30 full seconds before I dove in... How on earth did she replace herself with the pillow... No wait... How on earth did she get in my house in the first place?!''

I forgot that the Proxies have their own place on Booastrum so the first thing I thought was "Velina travelled ALL the way to New Eridu just to chill on the Random Play couch..?".
