Agreed, comparing the weight of a Chevy Blazer to that of a MUCH smaller Model Y is a strawman argument. But going with your angle, let's compare these BOATS. That's a tugBOAT not a tugSHIP.

A semi-formal jacket.
Blazer means: A semi-formal jacket.. There is no real cause for parental concern; it is descriptive vocabulary rather than risky behaviour. If your teen uses it, context will usually make the intent clear. A short, curious question about where they heard it is usually all that is needed to know whether to follow up.
blazer means: A semi-formal jacket.. Register: neutral, standard English. A common learner mistake is using the word in a register it does not fit, or assuming a single global meaning; native speakers immediately notice when slang appears in formal contexts, so always check the surrounding register before producing it yourself. A formal-English equivalent (a synonym or descriptive phrase) is usually safer in writing. When in doubt, paraphrase rather than reuse the slang form.
