The English language does a pretty good job of pinning thoughts and ideas down with a high degree of precision. Some people just hide behind semantics to avoid fully engaging in the debate. Of greater concern to me is contsantly falling standards of grammar. Now you may find this petty BUT if meaning gets any more blurred and precision is not maintained then the standard of debate will fall and we will all just shout 'its all semantics'!
