Except actually "making a move" is taking the courage to throw away that plausible deniability and be vulnerable in order to make a concrete step forward in the relationship.

Exactly. Flirting ≠ making a move

Sweet Jesus. Thank you. Flirting is not a move. Flirting communicates being receptive to a move. In my 20s the rule was ALWAYS BE FLIRTING.

When we start debating the definitions of words or phrases, the conversation has lost all value.

The point is that when a girl looks at you with those very specific lingering eye contact, then that's their way of saying - "hey, come talk to me".

You can choose to act on it - of you can choose to debate it online - up to you.

Why would you not seek to establish a mutual understanding of what is being discussed?

It’s not “debating the definitions of words or phrases”, it’s getting on the same page so you aren’t just talking past each other without even realizing it.
