I'm not actually sure where that quote came from, but yes, there's not likely to be much confusion. Ground speed is usually displayed by some kind of computer, could be a glass panel or just an aviation GPS unit, and is usually marked "GS" or "Kts Ground." And it's sort of considered, philosophically, to be more a navigation thing than an actual flight instrument, since you only really pay attention to it in flight if you're doing navigation calculations.
