What's wrong with "large language model"?

Naming things using qualifiers like "large" has never aged well when transistors were involved.

For example, consider the term "short wave" radio which refers to wavelengths of at least 10 meters. Today's mobile communications use wavelengths 100x - 10,000x shorter.

Seems like a lot of people are upset about other people calling both apples and oranges “fruit”.
