the slide release was DESIGNED to release the slide

Okay, prove that 1) this is specifically designed to do this and only this job and 2) that the design stipulated it could not be used for anything else.
You can't, of course as it isn't necessarily factually true, certainly not across the board for all semi-auto handguns.

It does not matter what you think it part was designed to do and it does not matter what you were talk about what this part is called. Different instructors teach different things and different manufacturers call the same part by different names.
Looks at posts 45 and 48 here.

Depending on the manufacturer or the military, what it is called and how it can be used will vary widely and in many cases, the terminology of the part changes with the description.
