That's a really contorted argument. It's not how we use "ship" at all, and it's making your idea much harder to pick out, not easier.

Oh I'm sorry that it was confusing! Shipping in that sense is a common tech colloquialism. I probably should have vetted it by some ESL speakers to check accessibility for those unfamiliar with the language. That's my bad. Will take into account for the next post~

No, it very much is not unless your descriptions are entirely unrepresentative of what you actually mean to say.

I'm well aware of how it is used in tech - I've worked in tech for 30+ years.

And frankly, your insulting comments here undermine you further. My English comprehension is well above the average native English speaker, and judging by your comments here I'm not confident I can say the same about yours.

Consider that when multiple people here have issues with understanding you, it says something about your language use, not theirs.
