Well Astrid does kill her self with said snakes so I feel like it evens itself out.

Aside of the obvious meme joke. Well, language eveolves, maybe the distinction isn't that important any more. Other languages don't have it and usually you add more context to something. Also when was the last time you tried to eat an unknown animal? Or where in a situation, where you had to decide if the dangerous looking animal is only supposed to be uneatable instead of venomous?

I'm fine with language naturally changing over time as it does, but I'm not a big fan of people gleefully cheering on as words lose meaning because people can't handle being corrected about the current meaning/intent of words.
