:::My bad, didn't realize bumping was okay and thought 4 days with no responses was indicative that no one was going to weigh in.  I'll check back occasionally but I'll leave it to the experienced editors to sort it out.

:<s>Time to use my new sysop powers to discuss this.</s> I agree with what Vulpine said, in that we can mention that the term is used in that context in casual play. However I don't agree with prioritize the usage of the term in casual play, we still should keep it mainly as the technical definition. For example we don't use "[[spike]]" to mean a downwards attack in all games, and instead as the technical definition (a downwards attack that cannot be meteor canceled), whereas casuals use spike and [[meteor smash]] interchangeably.

::I'm with you on casual vs technical, but despite writing it up as the "casual" definition I actually think at this point it's just the actual definition.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=voK1QG49RAs This and other "0 to death" compilations show the commentators referring to them as 0-to-deaths even though there are clearly neutral resets.  Commentators can be wrong; but if the commentators call it that, reddit calls it that, and casual players call it that, who is still using the technical definition?
