It makes me think less "failure in image classification", and more "implicit bias in the WordNet database and/or failure to represent concepts that can't be described succintly in English".

It could also be "failure to pick words that mean the thing the image classifier learned". Also, implicit bias in the WordNet database could be _a different implicit bias than exists in society_. Simply, we don't know and we should avoid pat explanations and guard ourselves against our own confirmation biases.
