John Huber, it seems you haven't realised yet that the world is not a dictionary, in which you give your definitions of concepts in terms of their relationships to other concepts. We need to do that in order to construct a language of thought, out of which to obtain knowledge by the scientific method, in order to predict. Understanding is something very different from this definition of knowledge.
