Will you be satisfied if your brother or sister were only describable as "sibling"? Would it roll off your tongue?

Similarly in many languages using the wildcard equivalent to mean something more specific is unnatural.

Ok, I thought you were against having capabilities for supporting mormor as a dedicated word in software (like in the topic post)
