I thought you said you were capable of comprehending English? Context, man.
Context. You gave two definitions. One is applicable to abstract concepts, such as words, whereas the other is geared towards the technically-incorrect process of defining real-world objects. A sentence is not a real-world object.

you aren't looking at the full definition, I on the other hand, am

This from the guy that just plucked one word out of a dictionary definition in a vain attempt to support his case?

Find some way that criticism is defined as fact, like how i have shown you definitions, and I would consider it to be within flexibility

You're not even making sense here, man. "Within" flexibility? Flexibility is not a container. How is the definition of criticism even relevant? We are talking about the intersubjective meaning of written text.

No I can't understand every one of them, but i doubt you can either

Indeed. I am merely attempting to help you understand that these scales are relative. The descriptor "just fine" is individually meaningless.

The level that i comprehend and use it is sastifactory to a 10th grade level [...], which means that my comprehension doesn't deem "Criticism"

Firstly, you don't know what 'deem' means. You probably should have used something like 'warrant'.
Secondly, you are not being judged relative to others of your age group. You are being judged relative to a hypothetical competent wordsmith - one that can confidently use and understand a relatively wide range of language without error.

Even using to own; "In the category of just you, you don't own one brain" would mean that you don't own a single brain within the category of yourself

That's kind of garbled, but okay. Your problem here is that you didn't specify scope in the original text.

relevance is in the eye of the beholder

Not really. Relevance is a conceptual relationship just like any other - one which can be established and defended if a debate requires it. It occasionally dips into subjectivity, but only because of the alogical nature of human thought.
Point: If you cannot make any chain of logical relations between the original subject and the one you're discussing, it can be said that you are deviating from relevance. I hereby make the challenge.
