Normally, I would agree with using specific terminology. But, "base" or "baseline" is also used in the context of geometry to describe the bottom side of a rectangle...which the court is.
And even without using geometric terminology, the difference between endline and baseline is a distinction without a difference. That is quite unlike the other terminology issues such as "reach", "over the back", "set", etc....each of which imply things different and contrary to the actual rules.
Baseline/Endline, who cares.
