Forum:UNIT aren't really companions: Difference between revisions

Can we all agree that 'Companion' is, as the article in the Wiki states, an ill-defined term and that while we each may have our individual preferences as to what constitutes a companion, it's just an exercise in fanwanking? I can understand why people like to argue it, but I'm more interested in questions like why everyone seems to like longer words like "assist" instead of "help" or " or "attempt" instead of "try." So long as we agree it's all an exercise in personal taste, it's fine by me, but the true believer aspect occasionally on display saddens me.
