As I understand it, this is when a work deliberately sprinkles bits of different time periods together per artistic license, but the trope has decayed into a dumping ground for literally any anachronism tropers can find in a work, which is 1.) not the actual trope definition and 2.) redundant with Artistic License – History.

Please give some evidence of misuse. We can't accept evidence-free "this trope is misused" topics, sorry.
