I read that it isn't defining words that causes arguments. It is how we do this, that is cause for argument. Important word is "we" IMO. "How" is secondary importance.
For We are "the thing itself." When this truth is disclosed, communication based on words ceases or disintegrates into an attempt to (further) define what is actually meant by "the thing itself" and Self Reality.
Words are symbols of symbols.
Twice removed from direct communication.
