Raymond is best known for his seminal tract The Cathedral and the Bazaar, and remains active in the world of open source, which he has championed since the late 1990s.

Maybe, when writing a story about sexual assault accusations, don't use "seminal" as an adjective.

No, that was correct usage and quite apropos.

The "seminal tract" is the primary conduit between the human male's two heads: the "big head" which houses the brain, and the "little head" which controls behavior towards females. The "seminal tract" primarily serves to direct seminal ideas from the little head to the big head.
