When you get to define terms, that may be. Here on earth, you're just making no sense whatsoever.

I'm not trying to define anything. I'm trying to narrow the use of the term so it doesn't lead to ridiculous contradictions.

When people say talk about something being open, they mean in a specific context. They don't mean that literally the entire business is open and you could wander into their meetings, etc.
