Ok, what are the parameters on continent size vs appropriate demonyms? Where do we draw the line?

There is no line to be drawn. You're being overly technical and pedantic for argument's sake. You are failing to understand that the world conventionally and historically has referred to people from the United States of America as Americans.

Accept this and stop trying to "educate" people on something that no one in the world needs or wants to be educated about.

If you want to call yourself an American no one is stopping you. You'll at best get a confused reaction when you clarify that you are actually Chilean and at worst be called a dolt for thinking you are "American".
