I don’t think that essay does what you want. It seems to be about “you can’t always capture the meaning of something by writing down defining a simple precise definition”, while the complaint is that you’re not using the word according to its widely agreed-upon meaning. If you don’t want to keep explaining what you specifically mean by “breakthrough” in your title each time, you could simply change to a more descriptive word.
I’m not interested in arguing about the definitions of words.
When I use the phase “alignment breakthrough” in my title I mean:
someone invented a new technique
Which allowed them to get a new result better than was previously possible
and this result is plausibly applicable to AI alignment

A quick google search should show you that the way I am using the word “breakthrough” is in accordance with the common parlance.
