I agree with the disdain. I think that was a phrase thrown around about a decade ago in some specific situations, noting some specific philosophical inflection points, but that the media and fans have just run with it, to a point where people are spamming it to mean things it was never intended to convey.
There are positions, of course, and players are still required to learn the responsibilities of the ones they play within the confines of their systems. It's just the the responsibilities and expectations for what each position does have changed a lot from what longtime basketball followers might consider traditional.
