It ain’t me who’s using it incorrectly. I don’t use it. I don’t even approve of it. It’s all the people, some of them in this thread, who are defining it willy-nilly and expecting others to understand their clear meaning, which is what I’m trying to point out. Everyone understands what it means? Yeah, sure, if it means nothing.
