As you like. Though I do hope you apply your strident policy of technical correctness in your home life, for consistency’s sake.
For example: someone (clearly wrong) like I would merely say, in our archaic and hoplessly monocosmological phrasing ‘I am going to lunch.’ This is clearly nonsense. You will, over the set of multiverse branches, do a great many things, many of them having nothing to do with food, or survival. The concept of ‘I’ and ‘lunch’ are not even particularly well defined.
In contrast, someone held to your standard of correctness would have to say ‘The computation function implemented in the cluster of mass from which these encoded pressure waves are emanating will execute a series of action for which they predict that in the majority of future Everette branches of this fork of the world tree, the aforementioned cluster of mass will accumulate new amplitude and potential energy through the process of digestion within the next hour and fifteen minutes.’
Clearly this is more efficient and less confusing to the reader.
I consider the selection of analogies made in the parent to constitute a misrepresentation (and fundamental misunderstanding) of the preceding conversation.
