Yea, but it's no different than many other things in this business.
Take "garbage collection", for instance. It isn't really 'collection' but rather actually getting rid of the 'garbage' (no longer needed memory).
Take "documentation" as another example. Newer products today have less and less "documentation", to the point that it really isn't "documentation" any more but is really simple examples. Yet we continue to accept that kind of trash as "documentation"!!!
Take "memory" as yet another example. Many documents include all of RAM, SWAP space and HD storage and CD/DVD capacity as "memory". There was a time when only RAM was considered "memory".
Yet another is "gigabyte" as applied to hard drive capacity. I bought a 160GB external hard drive. While it does have roughly 160,000,000,000 bytes of storage avaliable on it, it is actually roughly 149GB in actual size.
