I did. To the point that I, after lobbying for the permission to do so, removed every single mention of any technology or stack-a-mabob buzzword and phrase from every single open listing my team had out. There was some consternation over it because the recruiting staff didn't know how to go find people based on this new buzzword-free criteria, so I helped them to identify where to look, and persuaded them not to be the one to contact them & let that be the responsibility of one of the people already on my team. It eventually worked. Also, be fully aware I'm not holding the discrepancy against the applicants. It's not their fault. They're getting signals from the marketplace that they should call themselves a "Distributed Systems Engineer". I'm holding this problem against the institutional forces that are giving these people the signals to describe themselves this way to begin with. Because it makes it much harder to find one when you actually need one.
