Oh yeah, haha. I often face the dilemma dilemma in which I have to choose between ignoring the 'incorrect" usage (i.e. not a choice between two things that are difficult to choose between) and seethe OR mention the correct usage and look like a pedant. Sometimes it’s a trilemma, and I’m all over the shop. But more seriously, I usually let it slide and let people use it to mean “a situation”.
I doubt that Lorenz has a dilemma in line with the correct usage. I couldn’t fight the urge to steelman, spoilered below, which suspect this is nothing near what Lorenz had in mind.
exhausting Steelman within. I only tried to come up with something, it's not a good steelman. I'm so sorry about this.
In the world that Lorenz posits, where prediction markets somehow represent accurate news reporting, either a journalist participates in the market whilst reporting news (conflict of interest), or they don’t, and they are bad at their job (and not performing at your job is unethical, I guess?)
