My answer: It announces to everyone that Ohm's law is not V=IR . Notice that no one says V=IR is not correct or useful, just that it is a misnomer with respect to calling it Ohm's law. Don't you think that confusing a property of a material with a definition of resistance is something to discuss and wonder about?

My answer: From Webster's Unabridged Dictionary--gob·ble·de·gook n.
language characterized by circumlocution and jargon, usually hard to understand: the gobbledegook of government reports.
—Syn. gibberish, doubletalk, bosh, mumbo jumbo.
Did you not understand my point that Ohm's law concerns electrical linearity, not a definition of resistance? If you don't agree with that, then you should present arguments against that proposition, not say you don't understand it. Don't shoot the messenger. Instead argue against the message.
I am not alone in my understanding of Ohm's law. See post #22 of the following thread for a verbatim quote from two good physics books.
