The snobby part of me gets where you're coming from, but the linguistics nerd part, the bigger part, says prescriptivism sucks for myriad reasons, there's no stopping semantic change and the natural evolution of language, and as long as effective communication happens I don't see the issue.

Fair enough. I legitimately understand your point. Totally. Totes. Fo' realz. Certifiably. Indubitably.
I'm just sayin' we need to evolve the current slang past "legitimately" because the word is becoming nails-on-chalkboard annoying.

That would be super green.
