I try not to blame the 'Roy Fielding is right' camp on this. I also try not to blame the "terminology doesn't matter' camp.

There are groups of people using the same terms for different things, and getting into arguments where there could be agreement.

There's a diverse set of people on the spectrum between formally trained and self taught people in software development. Terms can get borrowed from places like academic research and get (mis)applied before they are understood.

The REST in industry software is essentially JSON RPC (no, not that one) mapped to HTTP methods. That's a mouthful, so people just say RESTful, despite it not quite being RESTful according to the original notion of REST.

Yes, industry-RESTful isn't necessarily RESTful according to original Roy Fielding definition, but trying to redefine a widely used industry term is unlikely to win one friends at dinner parties.
