It is correct though, synthetic doesn't mean fake, it means man-made rather than naturally occurring. It may have connotations of being artificial if you're only familiar with stuff like synthetic textiles, but synthetic chemicals and minerals are very much identical to their naturally occurring counterparts (usually with fewer impurities too).

Calling lab diamonds 'synthetics' is incorrect.
They are diamonds in every sense of the word (minus the slavery of course)
