If they are going to use that designation, then they should not call them Heisei and Showa riders, but instead call them something else. It's not that hard

But Heisei and Showa are not terms exclusive to the emperors and thats the point. Those terms reference not jsut the emperor but a certain period of time. Thats why they can call them Heisei Era Kamen Rider. The Showa thing is dumb I give you that. But they chose to still call them Showa Riders since they were the last ones that got created under Ishinomori.
