So what did you think unhoused meant? Did any meaning get lost?
That's the thing: You can't know that.
We don't know what was meant, we don't know what happened.
So the autistic insistence on nitpicky details adds zero clarity to anything. It's inherently unknowable.
We know what the meant by the word they chose to use. They specifically said "unhoused". Your insinuation is that the author doesn't know what they're talking about and may have used the wrong word instead of believing they know what they're doing.
You're the one being nitpicky on details by your original response when you were critical of the word choice. We're educating you that there is in fact a difference and that the OG headline is accurate. That hurts your butt.
