Edit: removed for using the word phylactery in an attempt to call Dershowitz a horrible creature without knowing its origins

TIL, but Phylactery has other meanings too and I think the "D&D Lich soul container" one refers back to the reliquary meaning.

Even between relinquery and soup cage phylactery has been used/is still used to refer to amulets, protective charms. Admittedly the D&D phylactery is protecting what it contains rather than providing protection to what it's attached to, but it's a much clearer connection than the tefillin.
