Exactly, this is the perfect response to contrarian articles that insist on using vocabulary in strange ways.
People love feeling smart by reinterpreting normal questions like they are trick questions. There's a market for contrarianism that purports to overturn myths and conventional wisdom, and so people end up reinterpreting reasonable things as 'myths', and 'correcting' them with fun journeys into contrarianism.
I hope we can get to a point where we can recognize these articles as a familiar trope.
