You can go with the stream and agree with that use of the word or you can argue against it and be sort of right but also just talk past most people as a result.
Go ask strangers for melodic metal recommendations, then. **** a layman, use them words correct.

Jazz fusion is a bad example unless what you're really asking for is simplified melodic metal btw.
