So like heading, course, angle, direction, vector, and other terms that make more sense?

I mean "attitude" makes perfect sense to those of us who actually work in aerospace. It's related to all the terms you listed but none of them are strictly equivalent.
But go ahead and be snarky if it makes you feel better?

those all have distinct but specific meanings. Attitude refers to a collection of those terms, specifically as they relate to the frame of reference (the ground, in nearly all cases)
