1) It's a poorly defined word that means different things to different people
2) The word "mechanism" perfectly describes what it is
At the end of the day it's just using the detection of food, to switch from "tumble" (try a random direction to find food) to "run" (assume we're near, or in, a patch of food, and move forward to consume more).
If "hot" described any temperature from "the dark side of Pluto" to "the core of a brand-new neutron star" - then how useful a word would "hot" be, for communication between humans?
