Although since the toolkit is about fallacies, it is worth noting that assuming the origin of a term has anything to do with its present meaning is an example of the "genetic fallacy". The literal meaning of philosophy isn't really what is meant today. It's similar to the situation of the mathematician G.H. Hardy who complained that the word "intellectual" no longer meant all people involved in intellectual pursuits (including mathematicians and scientists), but a particular type of thinker -- namely one interested in politics or the arts.
