Please point me to a dictionary defining "drain" as a "lined ditch" or in any way stating that a drain must be lined, because I tried and I failed.

Best I found is in dictionary.com  that (/under /"/Physical Geography/") define it as

 1. an artificial watercourse, as a ditch or trench.
 2. a natural watercourse modified to increase its flow of water.
