Well, I didn't mean to claim it's prescriptively wrong, just that to my mind, maybe because I've been around a lot of mathematicians and coded a lot of Haskell, the usage jumps out as kind of weird... and anecdotally, I've mostly heard "isomorphic JavaScript" used kind of ironically, with a wink bordering on a cringe.

By the way, for the broader point about language mutation, and prescriptivism vs descriptivism, I think there's a common stance against prescriptivism that also seems to rule out any negative opinion about language change—to which I say, hey, negative opinions are part of the whole mess too, even from a descriptivist standpoint. But this is a derail already; sorry.
