True that, but when you are talking about the two of them together something needs to used to distinguish them. For Alan Hatherley he's not a world champ twice, and if you don't think they are of equal value, they need to be distinguished. Conventional and regular are bland and non-specific, analog is worse, unpowered, unassisted and non-electric suck, human powered isn't entirely accurate since eMTBs are human and electric powered, heirloom works nicely for 26' wheels since they are becoming scarce, but not here... So what should we use when a distinction must be made? If you try writing about it you'll notice that it's useful if not essential to have a term to separate them. Maybe we'll be find the term that sticks?
