i said typically, and colloquially. literally zero people refer to hemiptera specifically when they say bug. if you look at the american heritage dictionary, that's the exact order used in the definitions:

#bug
/bลญg/

noun

  1. An insect having mouthparts used for piercing and sucking, such as an aphid, a bedbug, or a stinkbug.

  2. An insect of any kind, such as a cockroach or a ladybug.

  3. A small invertebrate with many legs, such as a spider or a centipede.
