> Plagiarism: the practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own.

"passing them off as one's own" is the key part. To prevent this, you make it very clear which parts are your own ideas and which parts are not. If you compare the source to this post, you'll see it's a mix, without delineation.

Thanks for calling this out. Yes, agree. I should revise my understanding of plagiarism.
