Terms have a denotation - the defined meaning - and then they have a connotation - what they imply. I'm objecting to the latter.
And, we're not at an academic conference that studies such things. We're on HN, where most of the people don't have a precise definition of the term in mind when they read stuff like this. So the misleading connotation matters, at least in this setting.
