You said, "What I see is [unproven allegations concerning the definitions of words]" which means you do not understand what you were reading, and instead of ascertaining clarity of definitions, you instead pat yourself on the back for not being able to understand.
Your method of science appears to be, not refuting the argument, but attacking the arguer and labeling as "incompetent". The reason for that can only be that you are unable to refute the argument and cannot admit defeat (ego). That is why Socrates said "Slander is the tool of the loser." And it's your preferred tool, evidently.
