It is all well and good if the technical meaning inherits from the 
common base meaning providing increased specificity. It is when the 
technical meaning replaces the common meaning with an incompatible 
meaning that I find very disturbing.

When we make this perfectly concrete and use this definition of 
incompleteness, that would make perfect sense (iff it was true):

On the other hand the inability of a formal system to prove that 
self-contradictory expressions of language are true or false does not 
actually make the formal system incomplete in any way what-so-ever.

If this make formal systems incomplete then the formal system of human 
knowledge would be incomplete entirely on the basis of not being able to 
prove the liar paradox true or false: "this sentence is not true".

Therefore this The conventional definition of incompleteness:
A theory T is incomplete if and only if there is some sentence φ such 
that (T ⊬ φ) and (T ⊬ ¬φ) is no good. It has overreach.

See V24 for proof that there are no propostions that are both true and 
unprovable within the same formal system when formal systems are 
required to conform to the sound deductive inference model.
