YOU are playing a word game, it seems to me! I'm not.
I don't believe everything just because the MoQ tells me so. It appears that
you do.
If I needed my motorcycle repaired, I certainly wouldn't hire an artist to
fix it. (Fortunately, I don't have a motorcycle.)
If philosophy were simply a word game, it would have no influence on human
history, ethics, culture, morality, spirituality, history, science, or
religion. Obviously, it has. If word games are your thing, I can recommend
one or two other sites that would welcome your skills.
Best wishes,
Ham
