Yes, I have recently fallen under the curse of etymological fallacy. I am sorry but cannot help it. Just as Ancient Greek claimed the purity of word, I see value in that. Using wrong word in some context is impure. Not only is it aesthetically unpleasing, it can lead to big problems such as equivocations, which lead to evasions. This all means is that necessarily etymological fallacy is not bad thing. Indeed etymological fallacy should be thought of as bad, if one tries to correct another through etymological fallacy. However, correcting your own language use through etymological fallacy, has nothing morally wrong. On the contrary, it sets price and weight on your words, sentence and ideas. In that way, one can become more articulate, because ultimately words is the smallest unit of oral self-expression. Knowing your words and using them correctly (and yes, there has to be so-called correct use, otherwise things break), is a mastery of self-expression. I aspire towards that ideal.
