So you're telling me that if everyone around here started referring to it as "playing the DM" that you would be fine with that, since it's just a term that reflects a particular view (with a grain of truth) of this playstyle? The OSR can call it "skilled play" and everyone else will refer to it as "playing the DM". Two sides of the coin.
I think that plenty of OSR folks would object to using such a term. In fact, I've seen it plenty of times on ENWorld. "Skilled play" is similarly problematic, for similar reasons. It's likely too entrenched to change now, but for you to cast such aspersions upon anyone objecting to the term suggests a bias.
