I see. So it's your preferred dictionaries versus mine? This is getting silly. Btw, the OED (on my iPad) defines it as "a native of Scotland or person of Scottish descent".

Anyone reading my post knows exactly what is meant in context and it would be the same understanding if your preferred substituted word had been used.
