Yep. We shouldn't use "rational" when we merely mean "correct", "optimal", "winning", or "successful".
Rationality is a collection of techniques for improvement of beliefs and actions. It is not a destination.
'Rational' as in rational agent is a pretty well defined concept in rational choice theory/game theory/decision theory. That is what I refer to when I use the word.
