Well thats because you're thinking about its literal meaning as a word on its own, and not the origin of the suffix 'phobia'.
What youre doing is kinda the equivalent to keeping up a fuss about the word blackmail not having anything to do wih sending letters, or getting really angry about not being able to travel down the Thames on a friendship.
