Why say "Hermes" or "Thoth"? People should recognize Tehuti instead.
Why say "Egypt" instead of Kemet?
It's 'Ausar', not "Osiris".

Well the difference between the 85%(the masses) and the said groups, is that the latter ought to know better.

I hear you, but keep in mind many of the 5% should know better as well, and still use the Greek terms. Additionally my experience is that many of the 10% as well as many of the masses do know the real names, they simply resort to using the Greek ones either out of habit or because they are more easily recognized and therefore its easier to convey thoughts and ideas especially in the world of Academia.
