To me, crisp = crunch. There is no "crunch" in what Belle described. When talking about a good shortbread cookie, I would call it firm, or perhaps dense. But crisp or hard.... no. They might be cohesive enough so that there is that snap when you break it in half, but the texture is not crispy nor crunchy.

I'll grant that crisp may not be the best word for cookies that aren't hard or soft. As I said earlier, I'm open to alternatives. Like you said with shortbread, it's not hard, but it's not soft either or it wouldn't snap.
I can think of lots of crisp things that aren't crunchy though.
But store-bought shortbread? Pale imitations.
