I surely agree with you in the general, but I enjoy the line of the thinking that the OP is going down. The way I see it is that the language we use dictates how we think about problem solving. Even if we don't port the strict definition of a term one-to-one, we are still anchoring our approach to the mind-space that the other term occupies.

I read this post is as saying that we are no longer using the appropriate metaphors -- we are anchoring on counter-productive terms. These metaphors clearly were relevant at some point, but the field in which product developers play in has changed dramatically. If the game has changed, then it would seem that anchoring our language on new metaphors would make sense. If we use strong metaphors that more closely resemble the work we are doing, it could help us accelerate our problem solving.

As with all ideas, we will see if others agree with the OP. Personally, I think the newly proposed metaphor of composition is more descriptive than that of building.
