Correct, but using it wrong causes confusion
If I said in a meeting today that we should have a meeting next Wednesday about something, not one person in the room would think I was referring to the 13th. By enforcing the strict dictionary meaning, people that use it that way confuse the masses that use it differently.

Depends on when he said it. If he said it last Friday, then it’s this week. If he said it today, then it’s next week.

We need the word “oxt”. Your use is colloquially understood, but technically doesn’t follow the dictionary def. “Next”
