Now in fairness, the canon of genre classification is necessarily going to change over time, especially with a medium that's had as little serious critical analysis as video games have had.

That said, the genre classifications as they exist right now are pretty iron-clad, and that's not going to change unless the people who want to change it become part of the literati dialogue groups.

I hope they change eventually.  Change would be good... though I was a bit sad to see Adventure practically get replaced by aRPG.
