What is an example of “perfect” glamorization in everyday conversation, and could you please contrast it with an imperfect glamorization?
How does glamorization differ from exaggeration?
i.e. “My son is a a really good guitar player”, versus the exaggeration “my son is one of best guitarists I’ve ever heard”. Is the exaggeration also glamorization? What would be an exaggeration of the positive qualities of something that isn’t glamorization?
Perfect glomarization is glomarizing for everything. Glomarize over whether your son is learning to play guitar at all, and for piano, flute, bagpipes, timpani, soccer, baseball, handegg, caber tossing, buzkashi, karate, and arnis, all at once, if he might find it embarrassing to be known to be learning any of them until he’s publicly admitted to it.
So no, examples in everyday conversation are not really possible.

i think you misread “glomarization” :)
Not so much “misread” as “not familiar with”.
