That isn’t what that word means except as a slur which your very precious dictionary even cops to.

The definition clearly says sometimes which means you have to use context to determine if it is used as a slur. The term illegal by itself is not a slur.

You still have not answered my inquest regarding how using an adjective as a noun to refer to a person could be anything other than dehumanizing as you still claim that it can potentially be.

Illegal is a noun too, per the definition. Your question is invalid. I know you think you have some big gotcha bit you don’t. Some words have more than one meaning there are so many of those words that a word was created to describe words that are prounounced and often spelled the same way but have different meanings, that word is homonym.
