Words often have multiple meanings in different contexts. "Intelligence" is one of those words.

Another meaning of "Intelligence" is "the collection of information of military or political value." Would you go up to CIA headquarters and try to argue with them that "the collection of information of military or political value" lacks understanding, and therefore they're using the wrong word and should take the "I" out of their name?
