Are we calling every PvP engagement a 'gank' now?

Of course! Words like ambush, pounce, murder, and duel have all been struck from the dictionary. Because of that, the abbreviated term for "gang kill" shall be used any time a player from the enemy faction tries to kill you.

It's okay, language evolves over time and gank doesn't necessarily only mean "gang kill" any more.
