Of course it’s the folks taking it back to the ancient Greek and calling them aerodromes that are on the real next level.
Side note: port isn’t the only terminology aviation has stolen from seafaring. For example: airspeed is measured in knots. Captain, pilot, and first officer were all used aboard ships first as well.
