>Please, let's end this "new word" idiocy. Q is just making the point that the crimes are so egregious they almost redefine the word treason. I don't he's suggesting we literally need a new word. That's just stupid, as demonstrated by the examples in the last bread.
If you had to redefine it, the sensible approach would be similar to murder - i.e. degrees of treason. Obviously some will have committed treason, but under threat, duress etc.
