Just because the horizon exists doesn't mean every path toward it is equal in value. Logical fallacy aside, you seem to agree that improvement as a species is a worthy goal, and maybe even a personal obligation to promote such.
Language works a lot of ways. Don't let laziness and cognitive ambivalence hold the reins of linguistic morphology.
in what way is calling water wet laziness or cognitive ambivalence? it’s not like wetness is something that just exists in the world prior to our construction of it
I'm sorry, did you just imply that wetness depends on observation to exist?
Are you saying that the meanings of words exist prior to those words?
Thafuq? Of course "wetness" existed before sentience as we know it. Don't be obtuse.
