It feels like one of those where the people that have expertise enough to name new things are not experts in naming things.
I encountered Quishing the other day - the inadvertent scanning of QR codes that take a browser to a malformed URL or site with malware embedded.
Back in my day, it was just called "being a bit dense", especially as most cameras/QR readers will offer you a prompt to go to a website first.
Developers are notoriously bad at naming anything. Cybersecurity experts are generally developers.
