It's no doubt that the intentions are pretty innocent (it could be a dev/designer etc.).

However the context that many developers come from is literally being allocated as a "resource" in a project plan somewhere (and being switched out for other "resources" which we all know never works). So maybe this terminology hits a little too close to home for comfort.

Consider us a bit shell-shocked and sensitive to this word (although I can't think of a better one tbh - "Enabler"?)
