That’s a wilfully unsophisticated view of language though.

In what way? I'm considering the qualities of a hero from the given definition and arguing that they don't apply to bomb defusing rats and it's therefore wrong to call them heroes. I can't imagine how that's unsophisticated.

You failed to heed the meaning of the term "or" (!)

Doesn't that alone disqualify your rebuttal?

Wait... I "failed to heed" the word "or", but you get to ignore the word "person"?
