I tend to separate refugees and migrants, as the process and framing is very different. From a cursory look I'm not the only one [0].

In particular, in many countries refugees and asylum seeker can't do general work or have special conditions attached to it, so it's another whole can of worm.

This is certainly an important distinction, however refugees are a small minority of people coming here. Most come from countries that are classified safe* and most even pass several safe countries to come here, which makes them migrants by default.

*: However, they could be in danger because of their religion, sexuality, race. It happens, but it is rare.
