Currently, Gloss Bot only allows you to set one definition per term. Instead, we could save multiple definitions per term and offer a relatively simple interface for manipulating them. So
/gloss EW = Eligibility Worker
Would get you the definition
EW
Eligibility Worker
Then
/gloss EW = Entertainment Weekly
Would show
EW
1. Eligibility Worker
2. Entertainment Weekly
Move a definition
/gloss move EW 2 to 1
EW
1. Entertainment Weekly
2. Eligibility Worker
Delete a definition
/gloss delete EW 1
EW
1. Eligibility Worker
Replace a definition
/gloss EW 1 = Entertainment Worker
EW
1. Entertainment Worker
Is it too complicated?

A little complicated, and a lot risky. Two people trying to do this at the same time will walk all over each other. Better to assign numbers when definitions are created, and never let them change. It might make for weird “1. 3. 4.” kinds of lists.
It might be better to have the bot start maintaining state, so you can express your intention with a simple command and then it can ask you for refinement. Like if you typed \gloss delete EW and EW had more than one definition, it would ask you to tell it which definition you wanted to delete.
