      I guess I don’t really agree with that binary, because the language of literally millions of people like the OP already doesn’t actually clash at all with the classification reality. It’s mainly people with outdated knowledge of biology or who insist on there being one true definition of some words that get peeved when apes get called monkeys. The linguistic battle is essentially already lost for a large segment of the population and was arbitrary anyways.
