I get what you're saying, but do you feel that you require that nuance to be acknowledged to understand what the article is getting at with the word "man"?

I miss elegant, succinct language. George Carlin's point about "shellshock" vs "posttraumatic stress disorder" deserves mention here.

Not all dogs have dog chromosomes and not all dog-chromosome bearers are dogs. Some are cats.

It’s really simple, tbh.
