I call them "hard" and "soft" bricks. The people reporting issues usually don't care about the distinction, only whether it's fixable or not by them.

Soft bricked == here's how you can fix it.

Hard bricked == here's how we can fix it.

I like that distinction and verbiage.

If you can fix it, it's not a brick. C'mon people, it's not that difficult.

Also, soft brick is as oxymoron as dry water.

I've had a camera firmware update go wrong and not even Fuji was able (or willing) to fix it. That's a brick.
