Robert Lagas i think immigration let you call it what you want. They are probably tired of correcting every tom dick and harry that walks in asking for a visa. One day they will meet a hard nose immigration officer that will say no have then they will be back on here asking why did i just get turned down for my retirement visa.
i agree it's important to use the correct terminology. Like the guy who just paid a chunk of cash for overstay confused his enter before date with his admitted until stamp.
