I guess it could be one of those factoids, where somebody said it and everybody else followed. Thanks for putting me straight though.

Unsure! But it's definitely one of those things where a decent chunk of people use it.

Ah! I had the good sense to go and check, and the early magazine scans for the show explicitly used the term, which is where I figured it came from. So it's definitely at least kinda official! I just don't remember it being pushed at all after that, is sort of the part that confuses me. I'd imagine that might be because it doesn't make much sense on an in-universe level, given it's clearly just a general purpose old writing deal within the setting, rather than something specific to the Kamen Riders?
