There were some folks on my old campus who did just that, out of pure ignorance, of course. Nevertheless, you are quite right -- neither we nor the actual Phi Mus on campus appreciated it at all.
Unlike the "analogy" we were discussing above, I think that the argument you made is the valid and persausive argument as to why the use of "frat" should be avoided, except in those contexts (such as in the NPHC) where it doesn't carry the negative connotation you describe.
