It's one of those words that somehow become a status symbol and lose their meaning.
Like, well, hacker: I cringe every time someone writes "hacker" in his/her bio without stuff to show for it. Usually it's UI developers, I don't know why.
All around, I started to discard every word that comes with this burden. Words should convey information, not a self blowjob.
