This has led me to understand empathically why there were people suggesting we change bus terminology from master/slave to anything else.

I guess you haven't been one fixing the fallout that pointless shit caused.
In fact, DID already has a disambiguation page on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DID_(disambiguation). I don't think Dublin Institute of Design or Data Item Descriptions constitute "a wholesale theft of a language".
However, like many of the peer comments here I feel the overlap of these two domains is vanishingly small. Presumably only yourself and a handful of others would even be aware of the etymology.
As you feel so strongly, perhaps a well-written blog post would rank highly for anyone curious enough to disambiguate.
