I generally hate arguing over semantics, but I disagree on this point - it's a pretty material difference that totally deviates from what the article is actually saying. P5 has a very specific definition and when I saw your headline, the first thing that I thought is, "Interesting - the P5 conferences are creating a divide with leagues like the Big East?" The article was then completely different. Plus, we're on a message board that is entirely dedicated to conference realignment, so we as a group knows what "P5" means probably better than any other group on the entire Internet (so specificity definitely matters with this audience).
Agreed, the status of the Big East vs-a-vis the P5 with respect to hoops is a Thing, an issue that is discussed here, so it is misleading to title a post in a way that implies that the article cited says that the Big East is among the conferences that the P5 is leaving behind, when in fact it says that the Big East is with the P5 in leaving the G5 behind.
