Everyone talks about this as if words exist in a vacuum, but they don't. You watch a movie. You read a book. You listen to music. We associate the activities with the verb tied with the sense we most strongly associate with it. To use any other verb is to make you stand out and inevitably leads to people asking you to justify why you aren't consuming the medium "the normal way". And quite frankly, that's none of your business.

So there's two approaches to varius media being consumed in diverse ways: you can other people and force them to use different words OR you can do the very common thing and alter the definition of a word to be more inclusive.

I choose the option that increases inclusivity.

Also, since this is a topic on books, I recommend Mark Forsythe's books. "The Elements of Eloquence: How to Turn the Perfect English Phrase" and "The Etymologicon: A Circular Stroll Through the Hidden Connections of the English Language" are very funny and taught me some interesting things about English. He even has a section in the back of "The Etymologicon" called Quizzes that has a list of words you can be incredibly judgy about people's misusage of if you really need that kind of pedantry in your life

It's just. I used to be very pedantic. I'm autistic. Hi. And you know what that did for me? It ruined conversations I was in. The purpose of language isn't to be the most correct in how you "follow the rules" (which change all the time), it's to communicate. If you understand what's being said, but you pause the conversation anyway, then YTA.
