Agreed, "alignment" is also anthropomorphizing too much. What would be a better term? "Do what I want you to, but what I don't care to specify" (because doing so would miss the point of using AI in the first place)?

fun fact: the word compile also had the same trajectory - the same trajectory you complain about here with LLMs.

here's the reality: words change meaning. they are fuzzy. and when the words take on new meaning while just requiring a simple extension (in this case a computer doing a remarkably similar thing), complaining is just futile and childish.
