It is not an assumption.  This is your inability to read and
comprehend what I wrote.  You attributed and absolute to what I said
when I used the term "often".

Because you cannot read does not make what I said and assumption.

It usually is when you are unable to read as you have done all along
my friend :-)

The simple truth is the American language has lost it value in that
words are given meanings they at one time did not have; words are used
to convey meanings other than their actual meanings.

Village pacification
Hacker

and so many more.

Pacifying a village intones a polite and almost courteous way of
quieting opposition when in fact it meant killing every man woman and
child in the village.

Hacker means writer for the most part hence the term hack.  Now it is
used instead of the appropriate term cracker.  This term is used to
specify a type of activity such as cracking into a computer or a safe
cracker.  To crack a lock.
