To be fair it looks like the publisher originally used the term and reading between the lines in this post, the devs seem like they are annoyed by it.

Thanks! I looked into it some more after commenting and noticed that as well.

It makes more sense given that context, and kind of a shame they didn't find a way to provide that context without sounding like they were knocking their publisher. I suspect that's why they went with this version of the post anyway.
