So you don't believe different situations have different definitions? Logic is truth, and truth makes authority, not the other way around.

In this case if different situations produce different definitions, then a new word is created for the definition, but not a new definition for the same word. This is why the word "upgrade" was created to mean getting something better than what you had before, but the definition of replace is still "to provide a substitute or equivalent in the place of:". The fact that it is possible to replace without upgrading proves that they are not the same.

On to logic, how can you set a standard for logic? Is it not possible that what you consider logical may be different from someone else's? For example lets say that you upgrade your computer every year because its logical to you to keep up with technology, however someone else may consider it logical to save the money spent on upgrade parts and just use the computer until it dies. How do you decide which decision is more "logical" in this case?

Dropping hardware prices create the logic behind replacing equaling upgrading.

For you maybe, but is that "logic" universal? I doubt it.
