I see that… but I would argue breaks can be given. Therefore one can take a break.

Break being almost a non continuation of something. There are two beings involved. And as you point out, you can also perform action consume a break.

Taking a poop is slightly different because one is giving an offering. Although one can consume poop too but I guess it’s a different frame.
