The word "debt" is not just a financial term. There are debts of gratitude, debts to society, debts of honour, and so there are also technical debts. Objecting to the name "technical debt" on the basis that it is not the correct financial use of the term is like objecting to the name "work day" on the basis that it isn't measured in joules. It's a category error.
