It is deeply confusing to me why people think they can define a word in a way that covers all it's meaning and no additional ones and make fun of those who admit they can't.
Challenge for anyone, define "to eat". Remember, you have to cover eating soup but not drinking tea, or smoothie. But obviously, that isn't everything.
That's because historically what we call drinking has less to do with the contents and more to do with the container
When I was a kid and got hungry before dinner was ready, my solution was to pour a bowl of water to eat it with a spoon. I don't know why I put some things on the internet.
