"So does it count if" let's stop right there. All systems of classification are fake. We made them up. They are not capable of being correct or incorrect; they are only useful or not useful. The question you should be asking is not "does A technically fit into category B?", but rather, "does it have utility to draw our lines such that A fits into category B?"

It counts if it pisses you off specifically.

That's actually a lot better than most of the taxonomic quibbling on this site. Like, at least "does it piss this one specific guy off?" is a coherent metric of utility!

always important to think more about squirming

Digital de-aging is bad not just because it always looks creepy as fuck no matter how much money they pour into it, but because it deprives me of getting to see the fucking black magic of a) the casting director somehow finding someone who looks unnervingly like the original actor despite not being related at all and b) the actors completely convincing me that they are, in fact, the same person at different times in their life.

And occasionally, the amusement of sticking a bad wig and some makeup on the original actor and just demanding we accept they're a teenager now.
