Expressing it that way removes a useful word from our vocab; when people say "halicinations" in this context it specifically means that the generated response does not match reality. If you say that it's just a coincidence when it's correct, and that it's hallicinations all the way down, how do you communicate succinctly to a human that AI responses are not necessarily bound in reality? (I mean in the specific case, not the general case).

Well, I might be taking a pessimistic view on it, but if you expressed it this way to the average user, they might pay more attention to what's actually there when an answer returns to them. I think they have in mind that the text is (generally) grounded in reality like how a human mind grounds things, and this is definitely a hurdle in understanding how these LLM machines work.
