No, why do you think that is the case? Most wages are paid out based on what the market fr that job pays not based on whether it is skilled or unskilled. My brother makes more in sales (unskilled) than my buddy who is a neurosurgeon.

Because I've heard people use it as an excuse for why minimum wage shouldn't cover bills and they vote accordingly. Language matters.

It’s scientific jargon. If you are having an emotional response to it that’s not the fault if the field.

Scientific jargon can and has changed to better represent what they're talking about no reason this can't either unless that makes some people too... emotional.
