One should pay more attention, in grammar school, prior to criticizing a writer who uses a word correctly:
Definition of “jibe” — https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/jibe
Definition of “jive” — https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/jive
You are correct, in that “jibe” is also a sailing term. But not exclusively so.
