Apr 12, 2016 at 15:34 | comment | added | John Clifford | One I see quite often (though I won't post as an answer because I'm not 100% sure it has the connotation you're after) is de facto: existing in fact, although perhaps not intended, legal, or accepted - "Jet skis are the de facto watercraft for exhilarating beach entertainment." | |
