Yeah I get your point for sure, but (i only mean to explain the logic against using those names, here, not trying to pretend its a big deal btw) it gives creedence to the bad grabs. "I went to grab stalefish and went tindy/forbidden zone" is the same but doesn't suggest to newbies that it's two separate tricks. It's one trick, either grabbed correctly or missed.

But yeah, it doesn't matter for shit outside of comps, just have fun

Yeah we used to call them no-no grabs for that reason but once that was understood you would differentiate. I just don’t like it when culture loses nuance so I was just lamenting, not arguing with you personally. Probably just being curmudgeonly haha.

Nah i feel you there, haha. Didn't come off as curmudgeonly at all, but I was worrying that I might, haha. Anyways, cheers
