If you want to compare philosophy to math, someone who imposes excessively rigid definitions on multi-layered philosophical concepts is like someone who was told by his middle school math teacher that pi = 3.14, and he kept this false belief his whole life, never realizing that 3.14 is merely a rounded simplification, and the assumption "pi = 3.14" will lead to very incorrect results with profound negative effects when you operate on a large enough scale, such as rocket guidance. Similarly, strict definitions may work for philosophy 101 courses but misses the big picture for higher level discussions.
