No one is pretty clearly a description of quantity, not a description of the people. I'm not sure why you would try to apply such an absurd and uncharitable interpretation to what I said, but if anything is toxic in this thread, it's that.

I get that you were talking about quantity, but the figure of speech which describes millions of people as "nobody" has also a belittling aspect to it. This is the aspect I'm talking about.

Well, I simply disagree that the fact that a word has another, unintended meaning has any bearing on its use. I don't really see why it should, or why that would be a productive or useful social rule to impose.

The word in question has a clear meaning, which clearly wasn't the sense in which you used it.

...and again, why is it that a sense that I didn't use matters?
