I have the opinion that as long as nothing is wrong with a definition, we shouldn't change it.

There was nothing wrong with MVC; it was just different than MVP, yet we inject the meaning of MVP into MVC and call that the new meaning of MVC. All that while the original meaning of MVC is now lost and now both things mean the same thing.

Also that last sentence is kind of eye opening, because it implies that as long as I reference something, even when everyone else has a different definition in their heads, my definition trumps theirs...

Basically we change defitinions of things we misunderstood because that is easier than solving our cognitive dissonance internally
