The problem with that approach is that terms are used for communication. 
  If you create interpretations on your own and do not verify whether 
that interpretation is also used by others (or at least in how far it 
differs from other interpretations) you won't know whether you can use 
these terms successfully for communication - which happens to be the 
prime purpose of language.
