Yes they do. How else is someone supposed to refer to such a thing happening? That's the term, across all of gaming. People also using it to refer to shared accounts is irrelevant. They are different things, and your attempted argument makes 0 sense unless referring to people actually botting (and even then, it's a dumb argument).

It doesn't matter what you think people would call it. It factually would not be monopolizing — with classic rules anyone would be able to go to the Idol camp and have a chance at the content in normal play session, either by adding themselves to the rotation or DPS racing.

As already explained many times now, and as anyone with a functional brain can understand, dedicating 18 people to compete for a camp, instead of 1 person being able to monopolize it, is a massive difference. People can only be in 1 place at a time (without cheating). A guild trying keep 18 people logged in at a spawn means they are losing out elsewhere. Naturally people will want to spread out more, and every camp becomes more available to the individual player who actually needs an item from a given camp.
