I gave you the listed definition of the word. It's not about what causes me to do the things I do, it's literally about the things that I do that others observe.
So stop using that word to describe what you mean which is apparently more akin to what causes my actions.

We know about nature a little bit (genetics) and we know about nurture a little bit (environment) but no we haven't completely figured that stuff out yet. so what?
To say that we don't know everything there is to know about every animal and plant alive today (because there are undoubtedly millions of species left to discover), does not mean that we don't know a lot about animals and plants alive today. It's not a you know everything or you know nothing binary scenario.
