“Let’s make the terminology somehow much worse. And I’m going to abuse what you provided showing that my ideas were pointing in the wrong direction to claim that, actually, psychologists totally agree with me – because we both want change, see?”

You can say there should be change. What you can’t do is come up with stupid-as-fuck alternatives and then hide behind actual experts and claim they’re saying basically the same thing. You can’t say the soup lacks flavor, suggest putting in antifreeze, and then say you were basically on the right track because a chef said the soup lacks flavor and suggested adding jalapeño.
