Is the United States Exceptional?
what definition of exceptionalism are you using to come to that conclusion? Is it possible to be exceptionally narcistic or exceptionally sadistic?

Clearly the ambiguity is taken advantage of wherever convenient.

I'm not sure I catch your meaning. Exceptional is a magnitude in my mind. It needs an adjective to go along with it

Like "fraught". Fraught with what?
But leaving it unsaid is more convenient all around.
