I think you misread me (so clearly I articulated poorly); the thing that is annoying is that super resolution in the sense you refer to is categorically a different thing that the common usage of super resolution in (particularly single image) digital processing. The usage existed, as you and I noted, before it came into digital image processioning.

Because of this, conversations around it are often confused, and it would be clearer if there were a different terminology for the latter.
