Wise cracks aside: -
The last part you mentioned: when the persons problem results in damage to their health - that I think is part of the 'misconception' in the tag of 'illness'. It's the problem that caused the illness: not the illness that caused the problem.

On this issue and on several other we do seem to have the same brain

all powers that be help you on that.
At the risk of seeming really more tedious I have to agree again because once a health issue is treated as an illness, from an addiction, the diagnosis is (in the case of alcohol or drugs for instance) alcohol related liver disease or drugs related etc.
It would be recognised officially as being an addiction induced illness,one that normally may not have occurred.
