So if somebody edits the meaning of the word chocolate in online dictionaries to mean "brown substance that comes out of the anus of animals and humans", are you going to start pooping actual chocolate? Will actual turds start tasting yummy to you?
Because that's what you're saying here. My "academic" definition, which is the same definition used by everybody worldwide except a minority that gets the very different meaning from new online dictionaries, is just for fancypants and can't be used to communicate.

I think you have that backwards.

Your "academic" definition is the fake one. So skip it.
