Nin = endurance, stealth
Ja = One who
Ninja= One Who Endures, One who Practices Endurance, One who Hides, One who practices stealth, one who is stealthy.

Ninjutsu = Art of Endurance, Art of Stealth

Why would a person who practices those skills sets not be a ninja? Remember the term ninja was generic and given to bandits, rebels, ronin, fugitives, spies, assassins, scouts and samurai generals who used such type of people. If the Yakuza can be consider "ninja" why can't someone who actually learns ninjutsu?
