English term or phrase: his arguments center on semantics
The founder of the Free Software Foundation and the driving force behind the GNU General Public Licenses, Richard M. Stallman is one of the legendary figures in free and open source software. For years, he has been the most vocal defender of software freedom, and the community probably wouldn't exist without him.

What his supporters are reluctant to admit is that Stallman's tactics are limited. Many say he is not comfortable with people, and {his arguments center on semantics}—on the words chosen, and how they bias an argument.
