I agree; but I also can't help but remember how long it took for "ARPG" to be coined and we stopped calling everything a "Diablo-clone." Or how we still refer to things similar to Rogue as rogue likes. Do we, as gamers, just... Suck at naming things? 🤔
It's hard to get a name that is easily understandable by most people. Appending "-like" to popular/institutional games is useful in that regard. It is nice when a good name is coined, though.
On that note, nothing's stopping you from making your own suggestions. If everyone just waits for someone else to do it, it's less likely to happen at all.
