1) Side point irrelevant to the definition I've put forward. 2) Venom's series have sufficiently changed him to alter his conceptual purpose to not being a Spider-Man rogue? Have any of Hulk's altered him sufficiently in concept to be a Wolverine rogue? Oh, wait don't answer those. They could be a leading question.

Well first off
concept n.
A general idea derived or inferred from specific instances or occurrences.
The idea "Sabretooth" being the dynamic concept. The purpose in that concept being the conceptual purpose. Alternatively the purpose in itself being a concept, thus conceptual in nature and a purpose, thus conceptual purpose.
Second the quote = i.e. You don't like the wording of what I've titled something so you're going to argue against it, even though I've made it abundantly clear what the idea imo of "conceptual purpose" is. Making this self-righteous indignation:

somewhat amusing. Someone who proclaims himself to argue for the sake of argument, denies he is filibustering in a thread? Do you think Venom is a hero? Simple question isn't it? Oh, wait don't answer those. They could be leading questions.

Sabretooth's conceptual purpose has shifted, in my opinion. Do you still consider the above to be the current purpose of the concept of "Sabretooth" as he is today? Oh wait, don't answer that. It could be a leading question.

I'm not appealing to anything. It was an off-the-cuff comment about you arguing for the sake of arguing. Care to provide an alternative? Oh, don't answer that. It could be a leading question.

I have been answering your questions. Those that aren't leading at any rate. I don't have a solid definition.
You really haven't answered any posed towards you for the most part. So is every question posed towards you a leading question? Wait, don't answer that. It could be a leading question.
If you're not going to even attempt to provide a definition then really, are you in a position to criticize things as trivial as wording and grammar. My "a"s and my "the"s? Don't answer that. It could be a leading question.
If I pose a question in a thread, do you really think I'm trying to trap you or trick you with a leading question, as you clearly try to do, and are trying to do to me, or hey, ya think maybe I'm just asking a question? Oh wait.... don't answer that...
