I don't know. I just think that if you're going to put something on a resume, thus indicating that you're familiar with it, then you go and place it in a design category... It just seems to me that those two messages conflict with each other. You're either lying, or ignorant.

CF exists on the server-side of a web application - which is exactly the same as PHP, JSP, or any other server-side language. Calling a server-side language an aspect of design indicates that you're unfamiliar with software stacks, or unfamiliar where CF fits in a software stack.

Now... if the person writing the resume put PHP, JSP, or other server-side languages in with design, I may be inclined to be more lenient simply because it would seem more like a terminology issue. But putting PHP under programming then CF under design is just plain wrong when you compare where each piece of server software is in the stack.

We have to look beyond what we all think and look to what others think.   This 
is not an isolated case.  Talking with agencies etc, cfml is definitely not put 
in the same category as php.
