It is used clearly in a misleading way since this database is nowhere about latencies and time at all.

I know few people that use "realtime" to mean it in the "realtime OS" sense. It's usually used in layman's terms to mean "happening live".

RxDB isn't being misleading, it's another valid usage of the term.
