That's like saying the term "stunted growth" in children is bad because we keep finding examples of increasingly taller or obese children.

"Global warming" always referred to an on-average increase in warming on a global scale. The term wasn't the issue, it was people intentionally deciding they didn't like it for political reasons.

using unproven science or bad science for political gains is why people don't like "global warming" for political reasons.
