Who would change the meaning of the word "ALPHA" to imply - force, fear or pain - and WHY would they do it?
Could there be a hidden agenda?
Lets start by finding out where the word "alpha" comes from and what it ACTUALLY means.
ALPHA is the name given to the first letter in the Greek alphabet. The Greek alpha comes from the Hebrew and Phoenician ALEPH, a form (pictograph) of the word for "ox," aleph, possibly because the character resembled an ox's head. (Head of the family)
“the alpha star in a constellation is the brightest or main star”
Synonyms:
important, of import, of great significance or value
The alpha male usually wins his position not because he is physically stronger, but because he leads a large and stable coalition.

(In the animal kingdom, the ALPHA position is EARNED by building TRUST and RESPECT - Rules, Boundaries, Structure)
