So you're saying that if I have, say, a JACK amplifier program with two
ports, one writable port where the sound goes in and one readable port
where the sound comes out, I should call the port where the sound goes
in "output" and the port where it comes out "input"?

I recently discovered that the output/readable
ports of VirMIDI don't
send any MIDI messages but the input/writable ports of VirMIDI still
work.
An readable port is an "input port" and a writable port is an "output
port". After all, you plug your guitar into the jack on the amp labeled
"input" and the speaker into the jack labeled "output".
Would anyone ever make a guitar amp that worked the other way round,
then try to explain to the user that from the perspective of inside the
amp, the guitar jack is "output" and the speaker jack "input"? Did
not
think so.
