> So, while you didn't literally say "procrastination is identical with laziness" maybe you can see how you might have given that impression?

That might be perceived, but only when people pluck phrases and sentences out of content. What you quoted was directly followed by an example of laziness from the article. "The premise of this article is literally founded on intellectual laziness. When a person takes a course twice without ever managing to turn in homework, the situation of the student is not completely to blame, since the student didn't take the time to do something - the work, withdrawing in time, discussing options with the professor, something."

> Do you feel there is some deeper relevance to the term, though? For example, do you think it's more accurate to say that "laziness" is an inherent character trait that explains behavior, rather than merely describing it?

It is not about how I feel but the meanings of words. Procrastination describes behavior. Laziness can describe an attitude of being unwilling to act but also the behavior of indolence or lack of action.
