Language shouldnt be an authority defined thing, its defined by the speakers
In France there's an actual committee that's there to decide which words come and go from the language (l'Académie Française).
Nobody gives a fuck, in fact I think these days they're mostly just playing catch up by adding the words that get used the most that year.
Quebec is even funnier, not only do they have their own l'acacademie, they have one that considers their Parisian counterparts to be soft and liable to accepting "Anglo corruptions"
