Regardless, I would also suggest that, while it’s definitely worth putting in some time and effort (and gathering of multiple opinions) to optimise terminology, it may still sometimes be worth adopting a term that is less ideal at describing what you want in order to avoid cross-term confusion.
I do want to flag that, following my own advice above, I would switch to “cognition hazard”/”cognitohazard” if that has the most consensus and we can’t come up with a better term, as long as we also find some new term for the other competing meaning of “memetic hazard”; this seems to be the strategy that minimises total confusion/conflict.
