There is, supposedly, only one definition of 'schizophrenia' to 'who', exactly?

because of the fact that you, yourself, suffer from this epidemic and that is
certain. You will have to try to follow as it is not a disease, it is part of a fact, a
process, of evolution. The mind of man is still evolving to become functional. A
mind is one of the life support systems of the body. As such, it has a well
defined biologically determined job to perform and well defined means of doing that job.
Schizophrenia means that the mind is divorced from doing its job,
processing the information presented to us from reality in order to maintain
and promote life as any other life support system does. When you divide a
thing and claim contradictory results, you have a schizoid results. Relation to
self is inadmissible.
You're demonstrating a lack of intellectual integrity, credibility, objectivity and honesty when you forcefully change the generally accepted definition of schizophrenia without any substantial argument and evidences.
Schizophrenia is a mental disorder[17][7] characterized variously by hallucinations (typically, hearing voices), delusions, disorganized thinking and behavior,[10] and flat or inappropriate affect.[7] Symptoms develop gradually and typically begin during young adulthood and are never resolved.[3][10] There is no objective diagnostic test; diagnosis is based on observed behavior, a psychiatric history that includes the person's reported experiences, and reports of others familiar with the person.[10] For a diagnosis of schizophrenia, the described symptoms need to have been present for at least six months (according to the DSM-5) or one month (according to the ICD-11).[10][18] Many people with schizophrenia have other mental disorders, especially mood, anxiety, and substance use disorders, as well as obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD).[10]

About 0.3% to 0.7% of people are diagnosed with schizophrenia during their lifetime.[19] In 2017, there were an estimated 1.1 million new cases and in 2022 a total of 24 million cases globally.[2][20]
I agree the meaning of any word can change, but not in the way you have done it.

What is 'true schizophrenia] is any mental condition that meet the criteria within the framework and system [DSM-V or others] of the psychiatric community.

It you defined 'what is schizophrenia within your own personal framework and system, you'll need to qualify it specifically as schizophrenia[Phil8659] and not just 'schizophrenia' which is rhetorical, deceptive which merely adds confusion.

VA is pissed off because somebody got to schizophrenia-proper ahead of him.

It is sort of funny to see the guy who decided that morality doesn't include good and bad or right and wrong telling somebody else off for a self-serving redefinition of a common term.
