It appears to me that it all hinges on what "mean" means. This equivocation is fodder for all the here engendered sprawling, tortuous and arcane disputations on "function", "differences of form", "contexts", "semantic fields", "unity of action", "methodologies", ect..

My favorite teaching example for demonstrating semantic range:

"The captain can run the ship with a run in her stocking while her crew
