These do not contradict whatsoever. The words can have precise meanings without people precisely defining themselves by them. Sheer pedantry. Also, the ending statement does not say the words “mean whatever you want”. That’s just you lying.
All these people complaining about the strictness of labels clearly didn’t read the bar at the bottom.
In other words - they’re not rules, they’re guidelines!
