Researchers studying photonic crystals say they have successfully created a form of pseudogravity that bends light just like real gravity. The new technique could have a dramatic effect on advanced communication technologies like 6G, as well as other applications in optics and materials science that could benefit from a no-contact method of manipulating light.
Is it any more egregious than the Higgs boson being called the “god particle?”

The media got it from the title of his book
Lederman explains in the book why he gave the Higgs boson the nickname “The God Particle”:
MythBusters: Confirmed. Media of the time did indeed force the name.

Yes I read the Wikipedia article too. My point is that colorful, non-scientific language has been used to describe scientific principles.
Haha is that true?
