You could argue that "pleasure" is a broken word, that brings up associations that are usually useless or distracting in the context of other things categorized by that word. But it's clear what the word refers to, so people can well use it.
You'd need to make a case for its usage leading to incorrect inferences. Given the sequence on words, this discussion must be held to a higher standard.
