Your citation for why they aren't depositors refers to them as depositors. I'm confused.

  And your confusion is completely normal. An insidious action expressly used by the interested, in manipulating language for it's purposes. It has already been nicely addressed by Weinberg in his books. That is why every dry desert urban development in the middle of nowhere, with hardly any water for hundreds of miles, is called... Watery Creek...That is why employees are sometimes called business partners, that is why private investments funds are in some countries called pensions, and finally the reason why creditors at banks are called depositors. To delude you into making you believe, you are or have more, than what you really are, or might have.

  Sounds like this commenter is not just arguing that language is being used incorrectly in this situation, but that the standard language and definitions are themselves propaganda terms. (Usually people are a little clearer about their intent to argue that.)

    Yes that is what I am saying. And agree, could have expressed it in a more clear way.
