I've seen it for other languages, including those two, and denying the term wont deny the concept.
I've seen perl, python, and javascript written like C, java written like perl, etc. Its always a bad idea - each language has strengths in the ability to express concepts to other devs, part in syntax and part in conventions, and swimming upstream against those never helps anyone. (Evolution is great, chaos is not)
None of which says that these terms CAN'T be used in an elitist way, but I dont see that as the primary purpose or use (at least in the circles I'm exposed to)
