I think it's far too late for that.
I don't know if I have ever seen any movement to push back against "wrong" vernacular succeed. Consider the more recent "coronavirus" which is equivalent to COVID-19 in the vernacular, even though it's really just a family of viruses and COVID-19 is an illness caused by a particular coronavirus instance (SARS CoV-2).
