Be fully aware that I have no intention of starting an arguement -- I am
just looking for clarification.

So, therefore, DLs should only be used for definitions. Presumably, the term
does not necessarily restrict itself to a single word, a phrase could also
be defined.

Which, if either, of these examples would be correct use of DL?

The milk snake is a medium sized snake found in North America. It is
called the milk
snake because it is thought to drink milk from cows but that is false.
