إِنَّمَا ٱلنَّسِىٓءُ زِيَادَةٌ فِى ٱلْكُفْرِ يُضَلُّ بِهِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُحِلُّونَهُۥ عَامًا وَيُحَرِّمُونَهُۥ عَامًا لِّيُوَاطِـُٔوا۟ عِدَّةَ مَا حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ فَيُحِلُّوا۟ مَا حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ زُيِّنَ لَهُمْ سُوٓءُ أَعْمَٰلِهِمْ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ

Why this meaning was chosen
ٱلنَّسِيء names the calendrical practice of moving sacred status between years. مِنسَأَة instead names Sulaiman's physical support, which an earth creature eats before he falls. The Quranic frames do not expose a shared substitutable meaning, so the concrete instrument is retained as an exact lexical collision rather than deriving it from external etymology.
