This is akin to asking for a Band-Aid, not a bandage. . . the colloquial use of "penalties" for shots from the mark just drives this former ref insane

I understand your point. I think the term penalty shootout is derived from penalty mark that you speak of.
This may be worth brigning to Fifa's attention since they are misslabeling it as well.
I guess the correct terminology should be penalty mark shootout.
