As an exercise in journalism, it's great. It excels at lifting
definitions into the realm of vagueness, phrasing as if it didn't.
Not saying that this is the author's intention, though.
Once vague enough, the article has the effect of spurring a discussion
that cannot bear fruit until readers have spent time consulting
precise sources---from doing which the article keeps them away,
quite effectively.
Enough said ;-)
