I realize I did say “sell a UTXO” but that can be interpreted and understood in different ways.
You seem to interpret it as “moving ownership of a UTXO from one person to another” while someone else might interpret it as “using the UTXO as an input to create a new UTXO”. The people playing these games don’t care about being technically precise with their language.
To the extent that the imprecise language misleads people about how bitcoin works, I’m against it.
