I don't know what your level of French is, but I doubt if it is so good you can dispute dictionaries, not to mention the author of this article who seems pretty well-versed in the subject.

No, my French skills are not so good. But I doubt your verbal skills are so good that you can dispute the point that the most literal translation is not always the most accurate translation to convey the same meaning and implications into another language. The phrase that is the closest in literal meaning may carry quite different associations.
