"well-regulated" summary of Oxford via constitution.org: "[the] property of something being in proper working order"

then per Wikipedia: The term "regulated" means "disciplined" or "trained".[169] In Heller, the U.S. Supreme Court stated that "[t]he adjective 'well-regulated' implies nothing more than the imposition of proper discipline and training."

Proper training, so as for a group to be in proper working order. These definitions are roughly equivalent. I could have used either one.

Cos they're both different from your exasperated sigh R E G U L A T E D definition, am I correct?
