The origin of the word "bionics" comes from a fusion of "biology" and "electronics" and it was about the creation of complex systems that functioned like living orgainsms. Not necessarily limited to prosthetics either.
Applying it to a simple (and isolated) example of inspiration derived from a living organism is erroneous.
