I disagree.

You can make that statement in theory, for a general term without any biasing factors.

For a term like "open source", that has a generally strong positive connotation, using it to self-define when your own definition of it liberally includes yourself, while the popular definition does not, strongly implies your alternate definition is designed for self-benefit. This is definitely dishonest.

"Open source" has been in use in the early 90s, as a simple usenet search will show.

I mean you're right, but I don't see what this point has to do with my comment...
