I am not used to making up intuition pumps. I will try to become better at writing them.
Depends how one defines the word.
This is a legitimate response, and I certainly didn’t intend to debate or try and discover the true meaning of a word. However, it consists of the claim that for somewhat reasonable definitions of “status”, “status is all relative” is true, and for others, “status is not all relative” is true. I consider that equivalent to “status is not all relative”—something I will make clear. By “status is all relative” I mean something like: “for no reasonable (to me, though this is something I expect others can guess at with good accuracy) definition of status is status anything but relative”.
Part of the difficult expressing this is part of why I resorted to examples, and I do take to heart that difficulty expressing an idea is often a sign it isn’t coherent.
Thank you for your feedback!

I edit the post to try again.
