Shit happens. Every tissue in the US is called kleenex even though that is a brand.

Lots of people call all kinds of skewers Doner Kebab even though that's incorrect.

It's speech and sometimes it doesn't fit our nice rules.

The only people who call them that are at least 50. Everyone I know except my grandmother calls them tissues. Things change. Shit happens.
