Its nice that you respect this person but can we retire the word polyglot? Saying it on behalf of someone else is slightly less worse than someone referring to themselves as one.

I would like to propose just saying “well rounded”, or “multifaceted”.

Its almost as bad as people that care about Mensa.

"Polyglot" refers specifically to language though. I've always taken it as someone being fluent in > 3 languages, following biligual and trilingual.

Based on your proposed alternatives, you're likely thinking "polymath".

Yes that’s what it is, thanks for noticing

So what exactly is wrong with these words in your opinion?

The blog author speaks around 15 languages competently and he reads in about 15 more. Here's a 2 hr long interview with him where he touches on this topic: https://azeletmegminden.hu/040-sajo-tamas-podcast/ (in hungarian)

Maybe if you are suggesting to retire a whole word out of the language you could at least provide a (valid) reason to do so? It's not really obvious and a bit surprising, honestly.
