This is an especially weird thing for you to point out because they made no judgement of the ethics of the sales model, only remarked on the likeness.

To be fair, the consumer computer industry is the only industry other than drug dealers who call their clients "users".

Here un Chile, pacients at hospitals are called users by nurses and others alike. It's really weird

Well, 'patient' comes from the Latin word for 'sufferer'. So I'd rather nurses and doctors call me a 'customer' or even a 'user.
