Your experience is not universal. My experience is not universal. It's not a euphemism to try to give a more accurate name to something. We can agree or disagree over whether or not the new name is a good one or whether the old name is.
It's offensive to at least a significant proportion of us, speaking anecdotally. My main problem is not fatigue, so the name is a poor one for me.
I'm sorry you have to deal with such a burden. Best of luck, medicine is advancing fast, perhaps hope will turn into reality some day.

Long Covid has been a real boon for research in this area, unfortunate though that may be. I'm looking forward to seeing more studies in the future.
