    But all citrus fruits are called citrus fruit. And they also have a different name each. And they get classified at different levels depending on need. Imaginary somebody tells me “they don’t like fruit because they ate an apricot and it tasted bad” and I say “but have you tried a Jaffa orange from north Palestine from the farm of <name here>, because that is different from an apricot”. No I’ll say “apricots are stone fruit and maybe you should try a citrus fruit before you judge all fruit.” But I wouldn’t say “maybe try ice cream that’s better than apricot”.

    Do you think the term movie is bad? Or the term Music? Or the term Food? If you buy videogames solely on the fact that it says video game on the box then that is your problem and not that of the word.
