It’s a broadly adopted term of art that has more specific nuance than “previously unknown” and abbreviates nicely to “0-day”. What more do you want from jargon?
It’s fine to use longer or squishier descriptions if you need to write to the broad audiences, but it’s simply part of the language of the field, just like you used “jargon” instead of something more generic like “technical terminology”. Consider why you chose that word and see if the same arguments apply to “zero day”.
What I wanted was for someone to point-out/explain the more specific nuance that made this jargon worth it. This question has been answered in other responses.

Got it. You were after an explanation more than a defense and you got some good ones.
