I'm an architect. We describe the macro geometry of the tower as twisting since that was most likely the original design intent. It is perfectly okay and rational to do so.

We rationalize the geometry in order to make it easier to fabricate and install, as you mention, but your pedantry isn't the vehicle of enlightenment that you think it is.
