I agree. I always saw it as more of a marketing term than anything else. Basically, in the early to mid 90s if you played rock music that was sort of gritty and you were from Seattle, you were grunge. Also if you weren't from Seattle but you played rock music that was sort of gritty and couldn't be easily defined as punk, metal, 80s college rock, or a few other things, you'd probably be considered grunge.
