Occasionally on TV you hear reference to 'they had an arsenal'.
Whats defines an 'arsenal'? number of total guns?...
First, MarkDozier provided a good definition in post 3.

Second, we know that reporters, especially on TV, don't use words correctly.

Third, a discussion of media misuse of language is not a proper subject for T&T.
