Did you write a guidebook of acceptable words and concepts in fantasy ? I ask because if you're so bothered by the introduction of new words into fantasy literature I'm assuming you don't read anything with any words invented after the release of the Epic of Gilgamesh sometime in 1155 BC.
It's a violently stupid argument.
I'm not bothered at all lol, I would have already forgotten about it if you weren't so bothered yourself :) But yeah, IMO it would have been better if they had used a less "modern" word. You did notice that fantasy characters usually don't speak like they're from the 21st century, right?
So you admit that they sometime do ? Kinda kills your whole point. 🤷
Only a Sith deals in absolutes.
Sith are a fictional sect of religious space wizards from a space opera. While they may have inspiration from religious sects of reality, they are very much not real. So, whether or not they deal in absolutes has absolutely no consequences to reality outside of the Star Wars fandom.
