Like when we say "instant karma" but we really mean "convenient coincidence"?
I'm just curious what you mean by classic sense
Just as you said. Not ‘instant karma’ or ‘karma is a bitch’, but karma in the classic Hindu sense as being the manifest agency of causality and ethicization.

On that note, ethics sure would be easy if karma were real. Then there would exist a theoretical cataloguer of all deeds. You could then simply (in theory) consult the catalog to determine how the universe felt about Alice torturing Bob. Asking about the morality of an action would be the same as asking how the universe theoretically decided to categorize that action.
