Yes. Am I meant to add anything here?

No, it's just another example that words' usages and meanings can change a lot, even flip, over time. A new usage can literally spread like a ~~~~virus~~~~ meme and become the meaning - at least to all intensive porpoises.

I know, it's completely normal. Doesn't mean I have to like a particular usage.
