Nobody uses the greek word anymore. It is therefore invalidated. Morphism is currently used in things more fundamental than geometry, specifically category theory. Look it up on wikipedia, it's official. This medium article is far away from official.
What gets me is that some designer out of nowhere can repurpose the word because it sounds cool. Seriously nuemorphism? This is the inception of a buzzword, created literally for the purpose of "buzz."
I have a new word, it's called "buzzology." The science of stealing legitimate words from academic fields and repurposing them to make your new "theory" or "design" sound much cooler than just a drop shadow behind a box.
