Unfortunately language is sometimes used in an unprecise way. Depending 
on the context "X is good" can imply an empty meaningles statement, or 
is just short for "I like X and think its good, look at it, you might 
come to the same conclusion". If Krispens says "X is good" (Which he 
would only do in a context where the other part can't missunderstand it) 
I would replace it with the long sentence. If a virtuoso guitar teacher 
says Al DiMeola is a better guitar player than me adding "Thats what I 
call a good guitarist", I'd understand it as a comparison of technical 
skills etc...
And if you listen to the collection of "Thats what I call music", you 
know that statement is just meaningless bullshit, though its stated as a 
personal view of things --- its obviously not...

Yes Krispen I totally agree to your view, I just added some examplesof 
how all the confusion can come up...
I'd consider Wittgenstein a good reading on the topic as well...
