no one is. this is the most ridiculous caricature I've ever seen and the immense snobbery of the so-called musician is unbearable. no one calls cellos violins. no one says Squidward flute or plinky plonk. literally everyone knows what a saxophone is, no one says careless whisper, which hasn't been nearly as popular and ubiquitous as it was decades ago. i wouldn't be surprised if fewer people know about careless whisper than they do about epic sax guy from Eurovision.
