I'm kind of already not on board with this based on definition 1; but even if we redefined the word "loneliness" to fit those terms, the remainder of the argument feels more like wordplay than insight, to be honest.

The definition comes from Alfred Adler, more precisely the book “The courage to be disliked”.
