appropriate is a matter of perspective. what you think is appropriate might not be what someone else views as appropriate. that doesn't change the fact that it's correct.
You specifically challenged DS by saying he didn't know what the lawmakers' intents were. The law they wrote literally only shows the actions. You have no greater an idea of their intent than DS does and his reading is not less valid because you disagree.

Usually you go with what the people in the population prefer, similar with racial, ethnic, gender, sexuality and any other identity oriented language. Just because the dictionary says X doesn't mean that X is a good word to use.
