I like my technical jargon to match up with everyday use. In everyday life, when we say “that’s true”, we mean that that’s real, not just that it’s logically consistent and self justifying.
When your jargon doesn’t match the everyday use, people get confused...like above, hen reached the conclusion that all morality is “true” because it is a tautology, with the implication being that all moral statements are right—that’s an example of the sort of confusion that can occur.
Yeah...it’s really just a semantic thing.
