    It’s not pedantic. People just literally don’t understand what inflation means

    In almost everything there is the scientific or technical definition of the term, and then there is common parlance. People will never know the technical terms, just accept that because all you’re accomplishing is being pedantic.

      How basic of terms should we give up on? Inflation is not a difficult concept. I would barely call it a technical term.
