Hey, I gave up being a language prescriptivist; use it if it makes sense to you! Ain’t no one got time to quibble about that shit if what you say makes sense anyway.
I can see it being the midground - inept is bad, adept is good, “ept” is just… “well I guess they don’t suck at it”, lol
I don’t believe “ept” is a word, the antonym of “inept” is “adept”.
I like ept. It reminds me of whelmed.

Hahaha, I like it! Gonna start using it… See if I can make it catch on!
Thanks!
I didn’t really think it was, just being funny when I couldn’t find the word I wanted.
Heading off to etymonline now…
