Easy it is a label to describe immigration status, like citizen, permanent resident, temporary nonimigrant workers (migrant),...

Immigrating into a country illegally means that person is guess what an illegal immigrant or illegal for short. Your negative views of the word illegal don't change their status.

It isn't being used that way (to describe a status). It is being used to describe a person as "illegal".

A person being documented or not by a group which claims political authority over a geographic area does not make that person illegal.

It's no different than calling a person a citizen. Your inability to understand the definition of illegal does not change its definition.

It’s no different than calling a person a citizen.

A citizen is a thing a person can be. It's also a noun.
"Illegal" is not a thing a person can be.

Actions can be against laws but humans cannot.
