In that case, I'd say it qualifies as arguing over semantics since "CEO does X" is an oft-used stand-in for "CEO leads company to do X."

Semantics perhaps, but the phrasing was particularly off-putting in this article. I know it was the first thing I noticed. I don't think I'd want to work for Chris Dixon.
