I feel like this comment is a classic example of reading a wikipedia entry instead of understanding the topic.
You can use it to refer to any race, but in reality the race you are referring to is only subjective to the user. The server is generally processing all requests in the order they are received.
A race condition usually is referring to a multithreaded system where the threads interfere with each other, causing undesired effects.
Relaxing "race condition" to refer to all causality... is such a loose definition as to give it no meaning at all.
