I came across this word then I google it but I was not convinced with the meaning they have provided, I feel the way you explained is more pragmatic because you have provided various contexts, situations in which this word can be used, which is quite useful to me ,Now I can feel the real meaning of this word. Thank You, Sir !
So pragmatic is a way of getting a bit out of set rules or standards and do what's practical to achieve the desired results. To pull the rabbit out of the hat to get good results.
A pragmatic approach may seem solve some problems on the surface, but the core of the matter is not touched. Social problems can't be solved so called with pragmatic approach; it is merely band aid solution won't last long.
After realising that was spreading herself thin and not getting things done to the desired quality, she decided to take a pragmatic approach to cut back on her load.
I wonder, would you for Christmas, do a video where you recite the poem 'The green eye of the yellow god' by J Milton-Hayes? I think you would do it wonderfully.
Far back in the past, Jesus fed several thousands people on five fishes and two breads so that they didn't be(feel?) hungry after eating. All in all, it's not pragmatic approach to pursuade future generations into truthful this story. On the contrary loads of people more and more become skeptical about the Bible.
