To be honest, I like that stuff more than true industrial and always have. But I don't buy the argument about naming the style. It would be inaccurate to call rap metal simply "rap" because, well, rap and rap metal are two very different things, even though one was an influence on the other. Another example is baroque pop. Nobody calls the Beatles "baroque music". Why? Because they didn't play the same type of music as Bach even though they were certainly influenced by that style. Same with industrial rock. As I said before though, the really puzzling thing is how, starting in the 90s, "industrial" came to be used to describe so many bands that don't even seem particularly influenced by actual industrial music.
