I suggest that that too would be an advance in applying the definition in the modern world and consistent with the evolutionary permission inherent in the 1954 definition.

That's the sort of thing The Effete Social Worker would come out with whilst smoking Red Leb skinned up with licorice papers (so as to more resemble cigars) outside The Bridge in Newcastle after another mind numbing set of political proselyting by Ewan McColl. You see, The Effete Social Worker really though he was a traditional singer and such considerations mattered to him. One thing we did agree on was that Henry Cow was dried up Zappa, but we still loved them for it.

Still do.

Situation that rules your world (despite all you've said)
I would strike against it but the rule displaces...

There I burn in my own lights fuelled with flags torn out
of books, and histories of marching together...
United with heroes, we were the rage, the fire.
But I was given a different destiny - knotted in closer despair.
Calling to heroes do you have to speak that way all the time ?
Tales told by idiots in paperbacks; a play of forms
to spite my fabulous need to fight and live.
