I haven't read everything on LessWrong, nor do I have time to keep up on the meta-discussion of Eliezer's neologism habits, but I can say that I've never thought that he invented any of the concepts that I learned through HPMOR or the sequences that I have read.
On the contrary, he seems very intent on citing the very books and people from which he learned these things. At least in my more limited experience. You definitely seem to have studied up on the issue much more than I.
