For example, if you say that “feed” isn’t a real word because there is a better way to say “issued someone a fee,” but the real word is “feed” as in “to provide with nourishment,” what would that error in judgment be called?

    correct in claiming that “feed” is not a real word

    Not in this context, since to fee isn’t a verb.
